What does he think, I wonder?
I keep wanting to ask what he thinks of the rest of Blackstar. He might not have even had the chance to listen to it yet…I wonder… I’ve done it now anyway. God help me…

A sneaky clue of next week’s theme for Kerrsday Thursday…
Lyric of the day Song: Seeing Out The Angel Album: Sons And Fascination Year of release: 1981 Words: Jim Kerr (I like this one today! Nearly up there with my Hunter And The Hunted one! Never to be matched that one now though.)
