Minds Music Monday – 110Berlin Extended Mixes on YouTube

Minds Music Monday – Boys From Brazil – SAF/SFC 40th Anniversary Celebration

In the early 1980s (as in 1980, 1981 and early into 1982) Simple Minds were accused of being “too Euro-centric” and of not putting enough of their focus into closer to home – what was happening in the UK, or even just in Glasgow itself. Why should there be criticism of such a thing? Why…

Fiddy

View From The Kit

Not bad, huh? (see below) It took a little while to get into it but as soon as I had the lesson with Cherisse, it lit the touch paper and got me hungry again. She has me learning new stuff and at first it seems like I’ll just never get it. I try the beat…

The Little Drummer Girl In Lockdown

The kit is fab! I contacted Cherisse a few days back to see about having a lesson. She got back to me on Wednesday afternoon saying she had had a late cancellation for the following day (yesterday) if I wanted it. HELL YES! was my reply. The lesson was, as always, great. She fills me…
