Save Carlton Studios Fundraiser – Auction Of Virginia Turbett Prints – Scottish Music Scene
FURTHER UPDATE – MARCH 4th: The crowdfunder campaign has been extended for two weeks – which I think also extends the time of the prize draw. The announcement of the winners won’t happen until April, so one can assume the prize draw is still active right now. If you’d like to make a donation and…
Follows In Love – Simple Minds, Toronto, 1982 – New Art & Talk YouTube Upload
Yesterday morning when I opened up Facebook to catch up with what had been posted, etc, during the night while I had been sleeping, I looked at my notifications to see I’d been tagged in a post on one of the SM groups. The tag linked to what is below. A new upload from Art…

Minds Music Monday – Concrete And The Cherry Blossom
I want to celebrate it being February already. I don’t want to think about there being several more weeks of cold weather to endure! I want to think about spring and the days getting longer, and sun and long shadows and the ephemeral beauty of cherry blossom fluttering in the air and littering the ground….

New Fforde Grene – Simple Minds’ Debut In England, 1979
It’s a daily ritual to check whether “new” content under the banner of “Simple Minds” has been uploaded to YouTube. And I try to remember to check every morning. Sometimes (not very often, granted!) it slips my mind but I usually check at least once every day. This morning I was on top of it…

So What Happens Now?
I don’t know. I didn’t talk as much about the “strange relationship” as I wanted to. (But I still talked a fuckload!) It was an odd title. I know he chose it for the Prince song but…I kind of missed the connection between the choice of Prince song and the subject of the taxi driver….
Magazine Malcolm
“It isn’t creating art. It’s a job in the service of information.” A great interview with Malcolm Garrett in the latest edition of Electronic Sound magazine. (And who knew he’d produced music?! I didn’t! You learn something new every day, folks!) Click the “Assorted iMaGes” (you see what I did there? Lol) for a better…
Minds Music Monday – I Wish You Were Here
It’s the Big Garden Birdwatch this weekend in the UK. This involves participants observing their garden – or a local patch of nature – for an hour and recording all the different species (and highest number of each in one gathering) of birds in one hour. I will probably take part but I know already…

Neon Lights – The Cover Of The Covers – Which Led Off The Beaten Track
I have over the past few days found myself super intrigued by the artwork of the Neon Lights album. I suddenly started to wonder who designed it, and more importantly, who wrote out the tracklisting on the cassette cover. It didn’t seem like it was Jim’s writing but I couldn’t help but think how awesome…
