I spoke to Lou Reed at Glasgow University.

IT will be a tartan version of Hollywood’s Walk of Fame, with a cast list which could range from The Simpsons’ Groundskeeper Willie through to Sir Alex Ferguson, AC/DC’s Angus Young or even a giant of science like Joseph Lister.

But rather than the sidewalks of the world’s entertainment capital, the celebration of those Scots who have made their mark in the world will adorn the riverside of the nation’s biggest city.

Tomorrow the go-ahead is expected to be given for “Glasgow’s Greats”, a tribute to those Glaswegians who have made a contribution to Scottish success and ingenuity in all fields of life.

Focusing on Glasgow citizens, alive or dead, the idea for “Glasgow’s Greats” is drawn from the Walk of Fame in Hollywood, the 3.5 mile walk along Hollywood Boulevard embedded with more than 2000 five-pointed stars featuring the names of human celebrities and fictional characters honored by Tinseltown.
