May contain a heavy dose of Jim Kerr
Quite a nice interview – also, on the subject of the inevitable, at least Corey O’Flanagan tried to ask the same old question in a slightly different way. I loved Jim’s response to that proposal! Lol. That made me giggle. He’s always accommodating and receptive to all interviewers. Oh, how I wish! But I always…

Backhandedly complimentary? Well, for a 6/10 it’s more kindly written than the Mojo review, I feel. It reads not too dissimilar to Electronic Sound’s review, yet ES does not give album ratings – which is very canny of them! Anyway…I think overall it is good, despite the rating saying otherwise.
The best review yet. This is how you do it! This fantastic example right here! Well done Anthony Thornton for the most positive review of the album I have seen in amongst the ones I’ve read til now. No factual inaccuracies. No cattiness. Just straight out positivity and constructive critique. If I were Jim and…
This version from Rockpalast is AWESOME…and it namechecks a Roxy Music song… and…tonight’s the night! Roxy at the Hydro! Woohooo!!! Yeah, baby!
If I can’t write it, I’ll speak it…
Wholly frigging shit! I’d never be lucky enough, savvy enough, etc, etc, for an opportunity like this to come my way, eh? Goddamn! Oh, well. Maybe I’ll spot them at the Roxy gig on Monday night? Lol. Yeah, I wish! (And I doubt it!) You can read all about their secret filming at Paisley Abbey…

THAT’S the title that Record Collector could (or SHOULD) have gone with for their piece on SM in their latest edition. There’s a great interview with Jim in there and … OH MY DAYS! HAPPY KERRSDAY! A Sheila Rock gem inside too (see pic)! A rare one for Sheila to get Jim covered up. Lol….
THIS HAPPENED! I tuned into Ronnie McGhie’s radio show on Pulse 98.4 (Barrhead) and …. I needed something else to do, so…lo and behold. I opened up my art apps, chose a screenshot of Jim I had taken from the Rockpalast Cologne gig and… voila! The words? Well, he sung the song title as he…
Next Monday evening I am off to the Hydro to see Roxy Music’s 50th Anniversary show. I have been looking forward to this for MONTHS! So…in celebration of this, here’s SM’s only cover of a Roxy song. Goddamn I wish they’d picked something else! But, I guess Jim loves it. It is probably my least…
