Posted on January 15, 2022October 3, 2023 By Priptona 2 Comments on Today In The Scotsman Magazine (Supplement In The Saturday Edition) – Themes For Great Cities Preview with Graeme Thomson

Despite how this extract reads, it’s NOT all about Jim! If the book was ALL about Jim, it would … well, I’d be fine with it (Lol) – but in all honesty, it would be boring. And the book isnae. It’s flipping braw!

    Brilliant article! So many beautiful words about Jim and the band at all… Yes, he is a conduit. As for me, his lyrics is a clue to the depths of life. It’s simple and at the same time it’s true and so wonderful. His musings and thoughts helped me and goes on helping to realise myself. The sense of magic – it’s just what’s happening to me now. And I’m grateful for these feelings, emotions and senses – they make me feel much more confident. And for the first time in my life I believe that everything is possible and my dreams can be true.
