May contain a heavy dose of Jim Kerr
All things related to Mr Jim Kerr
Today I will try and get some things done on the blog. I have audio to put up. The extract of Joe Donnelly’s interview with Debbie McGee, Jim Kerr’s interview with Janice Long, and all four parts of the history of Scottish pop – the compendium to the Rip It Up exhibition, currently on display…
