May contain a heavy dose of Jim Kerr

I know! I should be concentrating on all things Direction Of The Heart right now. And trust me, my brain has not tuned out of the album, yet. Nearly all the songs from the album are jostling for position as the latest earworm. They are all on constant rotation in my head, playing non stop!…

Photos from today. I wanted to point out to Jim my hat. Birdy bought it for me for Christmas and I haven’t really worn it. It’s too big for my head (I know!) and so I had the genius idea of putting a bunch of the badges Samantha sent me around it to try and…
I enjoyed this short interview Jim had with Jacqui Neal, and her use of the term “hopeful melancholy” – that’s the phrase! Wow! The interview is short and sweet. Enjoy!
The clock ticked past midnight. I was feeling quite tired. I forced myself to stay awake as I really didn’t want to miss the opportunity to give Direction Of The Heart a listen upon its release. I had waited long enough and through not being privy to being allowed to review it prior to release,…

It’s been a little gloomy for me the past few days but these arrived this morning and seeing this toothy-grinned Jezebel smiling broadly and giggling his head off made my day. Virginia timed her delivery to perfection. 🙂 Happy Tuesday!
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!

Backhandedly complimentary? Well, for a 6/10 it’s more kindly written than the Mojo review, I feel. It reads not too dissimilar to Electronic Sound’s review, yet ES does not give album ratings – which is very canny of them! Anyway…I think overall it is good, despite the rating saying otherwise.
The best review yet. This is how you do it! This fantastic example right here! Well done Anthony Thornton for the most positive review of the album I have seen in amongst the ones I’ve read til now. No factual inaccuracies. No cattiness. Just straight out positivity and constructive critique. If I were Jim and…
