David Bowie – Drive-In Saturday
About to work on something (a Bowie inspired digital lyric piece) and I stopped to watch this. A great performance and such a great ending – his sense of humour was wonderful! Lol Miss you, David ??

Today I Have Been Mostly…
Writing out postcards. But bloody hell, my hand don’t half ache! I was being a moany cow, complaining about being left-handed…but the man on the postcards was left-handed, and he was (still is) just about the most awesome thing in the universe, so how DARE I complain?! Lol I had the brainwave of quoting song…
Record Store Day 2017 – Bowie Offerings
Still no word from Simple Minds on what they’ll be offering up for Record Store Day 2017. It’s on what would have been my brother David’s 56th birthday this year.

Royal Mail David Bowie Stamps And Souvenirs

Soloman Solohead – A LostBowie Track?
I posted this on the SMO wall…but in case it gets taken down…for some reason I won’t understand, I’ll put it here too. Listening to my Spotify playlist at night (as I usually do), the track Soloman Solohead from the Lostboy! album played. And as it began I was thinking “I do really like this…
My Desert Island Discs Explained
Jim linked to a little clip from Radio 4 about the nation’s “Desert Island Disc” – the British public’s most popular choice was Vaughan Williams’ The Lark Ascending. And it would be on his own list, he said. I had heard in the past that he listens to it most mornings. Well, in the past…
Those Pictures I See On The Wall…
My boys in picture disc form. My one possession I brought with me when I moved over from Oz – my Fame ’90 picture disc, with my beautiful display of my Jim Kerr picture discs. I have one spare. It can be made into another clock. I’d love to have my own Jim Kerr clock….
