Scheme must go down in Scottish history as the most successful band never to get any proper recognition from a record company, in no way was this a reflection on their ability as song writers , musicians or performers, but there was a lack of balls from any major record label to take the band on because of the lyrical content of some of their material , by today's standards Scheme's lyrics are quite tame in comparison. There is also the common view that Scheme refused to be changed or be moulded into anything else other than what they where, "In your face, straight to the point with attitude", This appealed to the average guy in the street and the band had the musical know how and ability to back it up, this is also why they were known as "The peoples band"
