The List began life on 4 Oct 1985, making us 25 years old this issue. We've called on some venerable institutions in Glasgow and Edinburgh to piece together a cultural history of the last 25 years, with interviews with some of the key players, and photos from the depths of several archives. Here's to another quarter-century of Scotland's essential entertainment guide. Illustrations: David Galletly
