Weekend WhirliGIG Wish – Aberdeen, April 21st, 1979

A Saturday night in Aberdeen…why not?! The blurb on the upload says it would be too early for Scar and Here Comes The Fool to be performed…but I don’t know why Tony would think that as when I look at Dream Giver, both are said to be on the setlist for the Life In A…

Who’s G.P.?

Have asked Sir about this…why not try the source? Worth a shot. And Stuart, if you are reading this, please don’t spoil the illusion of the aftershave by telling me it’s yours. Lol

Indebted To Simple Minds (Definition Open To Interpretation)

I love them. I do…and in particular Mr K…but…trying to catch up on nearly 40 years of “band” in just over three years is taking a financial toll. When you want to collect…desire growing memorabilia that actually means something to you, even though you weren’t there at the time for it to have the significance…

Minds Music Monday – Big Sleep

Not sure on the details of this clip…would seem to date, by Jim’s clothing, style, hair cut, etc, to be around 2005. It’s a truncated version…but I like it. Sir is being quite emotive…

Weekend WhirliGIG Wish – The Ritz, New York – 27/3/81

A Friday night in New York City….that would be quite hell-raising. It’s a proper “bootleg” recording, with those who have recorded it (or someone very nearby) very audible. They go absolutely apeshit for Premonition, which is awesome! Perhaps this person was at the Hurrah’s gig in 1979? Anyway, the audio is of a quality to…

Why I Love…Space

A rare beast in the Simple Minds canon, in that there is almost no musical intro before Jim starts to sing. (As far as the version on Our Secrets Are The Same goes. More on that later…) “I’ll hurt you if you say I did”. (ie: if you wish it to be, it’ll come to…
