Weekend WhirliGIG Wish – Mars Bar, July 30th, 1978 – Part 4
This one at least made it to demo – Act Of Love (of course, it later becomes a line used in Celebrate “Act of love is a luxury” and Glittering Prize “called an act of love / can you never stop”)
Weekend WhirliGIG Wish – Mars Bar, July 30th, 1978 – Part 3
Yet another unreleased track to enjoy, You Better Watch Out.
Weekend WhirliGIG Wish – Mars Bar, July 30th, 1978 – Part 2
Another unreleased track that’ll only ever be heard on this recording, “Take Me To The Angels”…reKERRing themes…
Minds Music Monday – Wasteland, Mars Bar, Glasgow, 1978
Yep…because I don’t actually live and breathe Simple Minds…and Jim Kerr is just a construct in my imagination… This version of Wasteland was chosen for the original “Simple Minds” end line… (see latest Lyric Of The Day for subtle reference, and check simpleminds.org for the background to the song)

Oh, Getty Images…you spoil us once again! Mr Kerr, you are beautiful. I really don’t care any more if it repels you to have me say that. It’s an affliction I am now unlikely to “get over”. Over three years in…it’s much too late. Never mind.
