May contain a heavy dose of Jim Kerr
With just under a week to go before the release of the new Field Music offering, Flat White Moon, the Brewis brothers look back through their musical output over the past 16 years with Uncut magazine.
I went into the city today and walked about Glasgow Green. As we (the OH was with me) walked down to the Green from Queen Street Station, I took photos of things that caught my eye or piqued my interest. My favourite photo I took today is this one below. It was taken while standing…
I had to turn it into something artistic…
This city builds bridges not walls ??? You can check out the website I mentioned by visiting disappearing-glasgow.com
Well, not quite. Norwich anyway. The University of East Anglia, in fact. I found myself on the hunt for something for someone last night and…going down the usual “rabbit hole” one invariably ends up at.

I’ve been meaning to share this here. Someone posted it on the SMOG FB page and…well, look at the photo. Jesus, he’s such a flirt! God, I’d give anything! You beautiful man, Mr Kerr. I wish I didn’t adore you so much. I love the story behind the crane. I never even thought about it…

A backstage “post gig” sequence of photos that I first worked on years ago and decided to update. Jim’s holding a can of Coca Cola. Obviously it was at a point in time when he wasn’t too concerned with looking after his voice. I guess he was young and maybe didn’t foresee the band still…
