May contain a heavy dose of Jim Kerr
Okay, as one of the “still managing to hold on in there“ printed publications (due to folks like me keeping up with their subscriptions, I’m guessing) – it’s a bit of old news now, but at least Classic Pop has printed the info. Feel a little let down that they never put in a live…
His Master’s Voice informed me that I had one itty bitty bit of the lyrics to Vision Thing incorrect…so, I have altered it. Thought I was in a Covid fug when I saw the correction there for me. Lol. I received no notification of it. Anyway…tis fixed.
This is my medicine. This gorgeous creature. These rare ones from the Mojo spread are wonderful. I have a lot to thank Tom Sheehan for. Tom capturing Jim in front of a Canadian flag back in 1982 changed my life immeasurably some 34 years later. I will be forever thankful. The other by Peter Anderson…
So much to tell, so little time. Back safe and sound in Glasgow but now assignment number four looms large. I have a week to get to grips with Plato, Socrates, Laches and Nicias – but just for tonight, I’ll think about “ArKERRmedes” and baths and being dripping wet. I’ll try and make time for…

Flicking through the latest copy of Record Collector when I see this. Nice one, Ricky! See you on Saturday. ??? ??
I’m meant to be writing an essay on philosophy – Instead I deciphered some lyrics and was inspired to present them with some Priptona Art. I present to you… Vision Thing! I hope Lily doesn’t sue me! But her image was perfect. I added my own flare…as much as time and inclination allowed. I’ve not…
I’ve been able to make out a few of the words of one of the song lyrics printed in the booklet for the new album. OMG, they’re beautiful! “Did I dream or/oh (not sure which) did I dream you spoke to meYou woke me with a solstice kissDid I dream or/oh did I dream that…
Early birthday present! Thank you, Simple Minds! OMG…I don’t even know where else to begin or what else to say here other than …. SQUEEEEE!!! Russell Mael guesting on a track! Fucking hell! That is so fucking awesome! I’m betting Jim would have been like a kid in a candy store with that one. Jeez-o!…
