Fun in the park with the autumn leaves. Photos taken at Tavistock Square in London by the Gandhi statue. Think they date from 1980. That last photo of Jim is absolutely beautiful! Well, Jim is beautiful. Any photos of him with tousled hair just makes me melt! *sigh*
Photo cards from the limited edition Ballard Of The Streets/Belfast Child 12″ Box Set. One of the things obtained in my eBay swag of SM stuff collected on Wednesday evening. A lovely surprise!
Speed Your Love To Me lyrics printed in Smash Hits magazine, Jan-Feb, 1984.
The baby bhoys! From left to right: Derek Forbes, Mick MacNeil, Jim Kerr, Brian McGee, Charlie Burchill. OMG! Charlie is HILARIOUS in this photo! Trying to look ssooo hard and angry – with his hands stuffed down his jeans! Lol. We’re not fooled, Charlie! You’re too lovely and upbeat 🙂
Photos of Simple Minds at the Free Mandela concert from 1988. Jim Kerr with Johnny Marr and Mick MacNeil, Steven van Zandt and Jim Kerr on stage. (Click for more if on home page)
Colour photo of Sparkle promo shots out on the ferry. From left to right: Mick MacNeil, Charlie Burchill, Jim Kerr, Mel Gaynor, Derek Forbes.
Sequence of photos of Simple Minds during Sparkle In The Rain promotional touring, late ‘83/early ’84. It was a cold old day! They’re all pretty rugged up – except for Mick, he’s used to those Barra gales :-)) The first photo is another of my faves of Jim. That tousled hair is gorgeous!
Shared a very similar photo in colour recently. Love it in black and white too. They’re such lovely looking boys! Even Derek 😉 (I’m joking! – and I mean I’m joking about the “even Derek” bit. Big Dan has his own “hawt” thing going on – he’s just not MY particular cup of chai)
Montage of Simple Minds photos, circa 1981. From the book “Simple Minds: A Visual Documentary” by Mike Wrenn, published in 1990.
