Momentum Is Building!
With just two days to go now until the release of Direction Of The Heart, Jim and Charlie have been busily promoting the album here, there and everywhere! A recent one for Jim saw him speaking to Jason Rockman. Some surprises up for discussion/pondering here! The next is one I have yet to listen to…
Jim Kerr Songfacts Podcast With Corey O’Flanagan
Quite a nice interview – also, on the subject of the inevitable, at least Corey O’Flanagan tried to ask the same old question in a slightly different way. I loved Jim’s response to that proposal! Lol. That made me giggle. He’s always accommodating and receptive to all interviewers. Oh, how I wish! But I always…

Sense Of Discography…
THAT’S the title that Record Collector could (or SHOULD) have gone with for their piece on SM in their latest edition. There’s a great interview with Jim in there and … OH MY DAYS! HAPPY KERRSDAY! A Sheila Rock gem inside too (see pic)! A rare one for Sheila to get Jim covered up. Lol….

New Kiwi Dreams
Last night I struck some archival GOLD (did you see what I did there? Eh, eh? Lol). An online library of New Zealand music magazine, Rip It Up. I have seen the odd issue on sale on eBay but never took the plunge. A mix of the financial cost of getting music mags sent over…

Roxy Music At 50 – BBC Radio 2 Specials
I caught up with both parts of ‘The Band’s Story’ episodes last night. It has really ramped up my excitement for seeing them at the Hydro in October. Their world tour starts in one month’s time (exactly one month away today!) in Toronto. When listening to the various members of the band talking about the…
