Photoshop – The Early Years

When photo editing was time consuming and could have bad results. This photo has been superimposed on the cover, which has made both Jim & Mick’s hair look hilarious! Also…how bloody wide is Jim’s right shoulder? Lol Mick’s in the “swapsies” shirt, again! Lol

The Dispondent Zoom Bhoys

Zoom Records promo photo of the bhoys. From left: Brian McGee, Derek Forbes, Mick MacNeil, Charlie Burchill and Jim Kerr. A wonderful display of aloofness and despondency on offer. I love this kind of display of nonchalance. Lol. God love them 😉 Bloody moody bhoys! Lol Charlie is trying hard to suppress a smile ?

JK Menswear

Jim Kerr and Derek Forbes, circa 1982. I always think Jim looks very “menswear catalogue” in this photo – COOL MENSWEAR – like a GQ magazine shoot or some such. When he wore cool clothes (thankfully, he’s *mostly* wearing cool clothes again!). Derek, on the other hand, looks a bit “WTF? I ain’t even ready, ken!” Lol

Autumnal Bhoys

Simple Minds circa 1980/81. Photo by Virginia Turbett Jim, in his usual pose of the period…hands clasped behind his neck. Looking resplendent and glorious…the other guys (apart from Brian McGee), all looking brooding and aloof – trying to outjim Jim. Lol Give it up bhoys (Brian knows) ! You’’ll NEVER do brooding like Jim Kerr…
