Self-Portrait – Ian Hunter – Mojo Magazine
I loved this little Q&A with Ian and particularly the fun element in which the last question was answered. He seems a very genuine and lovely man.

We Make A Little History, Baby…
An excerpt from an interview with Steven van Zandt (Little Steven) in the latest Total Guitar magazine. A certain Mr Kerr gets a namecheck when van Zandt brings up South Africa and Artists Against Apartheid music collective.
Joe Donnelly (Caezar) Talks To Debbie McGee On BBC Radio Berkshire
You can hear his interview with Debbie around the 1 hour 38 minute mark. She does initially refer to Caezar as The Silencers…but she gets it in the end. It was a lovely interview. You can listen by playing the clip just below… I’m really looking forward to Saturday night in merry Windsor. Really…

Where Did It Go?
Back at a time when a beautiful young man could show some humility and knew what humble pie tasted like. He’s obviously forgotten the flavour…or it now sours his tastebuds…. A shame. Jim Kerr talking with Billy Sloan on Radio Clyde in March, 1984.
The Ace Of Bass – Ged Grimes
Cherisse’s Tour Diary now sheds focus on “ace of bass” and all round wonderful man, Ged Grimes. I won’t be able to watch the clip until I get back to the UK (need to keep an eye on the amount of data I’m using up while in France-and access to WiFi is patchy for me…
Jim On With Janice Long For “A Long Walk”

I’m Not A Complicated Guy – In The First Verse…
I had never read (or even SEEN) this interview before. I’m sure he must have shared it on SMO at the time…but I was so early into my mega fandom, I no doubt overlooked it. Too busy absorbing the music and many other things about the Simple Minds world. Watching tons of early footage…as much…

Dedicated To The Catalogue (Numbers)
As you can see from yesterday’s post, I listened to Bruce Findlay’s interview with Grant Stott on his Sunday afternoon Vinyl Collective – which is on BBC Radio Scotland between 3 and 5pm for the next several weeks over the summer. I will be tuning in weekly from now on, or if I am otherwise…
Grant Stott Talks To Bruce Findlay – The Vinyl Collective, BBC Radio Scotland
The link may only work for those in the UK at the moment…and you may need be signed into the BBC website, but I will try and get it as soon as I can so it is listenable to all. I’ll be heading to the Rip It Up exhibition in Edinburgh in just under four…
