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…

Weekend WhirliGIG – Tiffany’s, Glasgow, July 14th, 1982

It’s a proper old style bootleg – but a good quality one – from in the crowd rather than the soundboard. And you get to hear said crowd go mental when Jim intros certain songs, or hear how raucous the applause is when certain songs end. Most of the setlist sparks rapturous applause and reactions,…

Art & Talk Weekend WhirliGIG Special!

We have a new bit of lovely first class bootleg audio from Art & Talk to enjoy this weekend. This one from the next leg of the Sons And Fascination tour on Feb 26th, 1982 in Arnhem, The Netherlands. I’ve not listened to it yet myself, but will be later tonight. Cannae wait!

Merry Christmas – From Prip And LDF

He is my superhero. I absolutely adore him! He makes the days brighter. He is…the start, the middle and the end. The sun, the moon and the stars. He makes me feel alive and makes me want to live! Jim Kerr – you are all things to me. Beautiful, in every sense of the word….

Minds Music Monday – Someone Somewhere (In Summertime) – Live

Today is the Winter Solstice. The shortest day in the northern hemisphere. Also Jupiter and Saturn align tonight to make what is deemed the “Christmas Star” – a once in 400 year alignment. And there promises to be clear skies over Glasgow this evening. Fingers crossed. Meanwhile, as we see in the Winter Solstice today,…

Pete’s Piece (In The Book.

Just had to share this bit. The last few sentences… More times than you could ever think it, Pete – and in as vivid detail as my imagination will allow. Usually culminating in the most GLORIOUS of “EUREKA!” moments, as Jim leaps from seated spot in the bath tub…

See The Glittering Prized Christmas Lights

After another disappointing day of seeing nothing in the mail slot but an invoice and some junk mail, I went off seeking distraction. I’ve lost my way. Gone are the days of Hunter And The Hunted and the like. I am less and less inclined to call it “art” without the quotation marks. They make…

Minds Music Monday – In Every Heaven (Early Version)

I fell in love with this version IMMEDIATELY on first play when I got the New Gold Dream box set in the summer of 2016. I find it wonderful when we are allowed to hear demos and early versions of songs. I love being exposed to that “work-in-progress’ – even if it takes many years…
