May contain a heavy dose of Jim Kerr
UPDATE: A second part has been posted below. A bit of a different one for MMM this week. One I wasn’t expecting to post in all honesty. I saw this posted late last night and thought it worthy of a link. Neil Saint of Retropopic Radio talks to Derek Forbes, Kenny Hyslop and Jim Kerr…

I’m at a crossroads right now. I feel as though I am neglecting this blog. I’m not sure what to do with it at the moment. I’m currently stuck in a rut with how to take the blog forward. It’s been a labour of love for over eight years. It has gone through several changes…

Sarah Brown has a new single out from her superb ‘….Sings Mahalia Jackson’ album. The track is called Didn’t It Rain and it is my favourite track off the album. Next Monday I fly down to London to see Sarah play the iconic jazz venue in Soho, Ronnie Scott’s. The gig is a sellout and…
