Gigs, Glam and Boy Bands
A couple of things to highlight from recent days. One is an interview (well, part one of an interview said Neil Saint in reply to a comment left on the FB post) with Kenny Hyslop about his days in Slik. You can listen to the interview by clicking HERE UPDATE: There is a part two…
Minds Music Monday – Boys From Brazil – SAF/SFC 40th Anniversary Celebration
In the early 1980s (as in 1980, 1981 and early into 1982) Simple Minds were accused of being “too Euro-centric” and of not putting enough of their focus into closer to home – what was happening in the UK, or even just in Glasgow itself. Why should there be criticism of such a thing? Why…

Virginia Turbett Interview With Artefact Magazine
I am very proud to know this lady and call her my friend and to do the tiny bits of work I do for her. It’s a privilege. And I don’t know how she puts up with my endless sycophantic, forlorn “I love Jim” crap but she does and it means the world. So here…

New Acquisition – Photographer Unknown
No details on date or location, either. But if I was to hazard a guess, I’d say 1980, Europe – most likely Germany, but it’s all guesswork. Anyway, we get the quirk of two half photos in one frame. Any other theories on it welcome.
Minds Music Monday – 70 Cities As Love Brings The Fall – SAF/SFC 40th Anniversary Celebration

From Auckland To The Norfolk Broads
Well, not quite. Norwich anyway. The University of East Anglia, in fact. I found myself on the hunt for something for someone last night and…going down the usual “rabbit hole” one invariably ends up at. I was on Twitter looking for relevant info to what I was searching for (no luck!) but I happened upon…
Flirty Kerr With Collett
I’ve been meaning to share this here. Someone posted it on the SMOG FB page and…well, look at the photo. Jesus, he’s such a flirt! God, I’d give anything! You beautiful man, Mr Kerr. I wish I didn’t adore you so much. I love the story behind the crane. I never even thought about it…
Birdsong, Fascination and Friendships
The post I did about “The Walking Experiment”. The one that FINALLY led me to finding the quote about the line from In Trance As Mission? The Alice In Wonderland “rabbit hole” of a post that took me what felt like FOREVER to sort out? Well it led me down yet another rabbit hole today….
