An Artist’s Worth…
Well, it may sound weird still to call yourself an artist…but you can do it with affirmation and pride. A body of work that shows its worth, that you’ve received accreditation and validation for. So, it may sound odd to your “Weird Ears”…but it is wholly justified. A case in point…just how the rest of…
Article On Peter Gabriel And Jim Kerr From – AOUT/BEST Magazine, 1989
I’m going to assume the that magazine is Belgian, seeing as I bought these magazine clippings from a seller in Belgium. The language is French, so…. Anyway, I shall keep the pages as they are.

A Powerful Image

The Wee Oui Acoustic Gig
Just over a year since the last Acoustic gig, tonight in Paris, Simple Minds Ltd Ed (ie: Jim, Charlie, Cherisse and Sarah) played an acoustic set at a secret location (La Reservoir) to a select group of fans. Lucky people they were! The gig was aired live on French radio station Oui FM. The set…
Nothing’s Changed
Nearly 40 years on from that interview (of which an an extract was shared yesterday – see the post titled “The Birth Of ‘Wan’?”) and nothing has changed…
