Mr Before And After
In January last year I went and visited Virginia Turbett so I could take a proper and extensive view of her archive of Simple Minds images. She has something like 1000 images or more of the band so you can imagine what total fangirl heaven I was in just even TRYING to view over 1000…
Mangled Magazine Interview With Jim
A quick interview with Jim from 1979. I feel vindicated about my thoughts on cassettes. Lol See…I don’t get the comparisons to Magazine, either. But I’d have died to have seen one of those gigs now! As for the “Secondhand Simplicity” review title? A lazy alliteration…that’s all it was. I seem to remember it was…

Minds Music Monday – Why I Love…Soul Crying Out
Lighting the political touchpaper in 1989 with words of angst and hope, Soul Crying Out has to be one of Simple Minds’ most beautiful, heartfelt pieces on the current state of the world (of then…as it is now) as you are ever likely to hear.
