Miles, NME, 3 July 1976
I'M SITTING in a dressing room at Celtic Park football ground. In the distance the Glasgow crowd is rootin' for Alex Harvey, but as the sound enters the door it mutates into the faint echoes of a hoedown borne on a warm lazy breeze because I'm interviewing The Outlaws and they're Southern boys.
