May contain a heavy dose of Jim Kerr
All things related to Mr Jim Kerr
Just had to share this bit. The last few sentences… More times than you could ever think it, Pete – and in as vivid detail as my imagination will allow. Usually culminating in the most GLORIOUS of “EUREKA!” moments, as Jim leaps from seated spot in the bath tub…
Is it starting to feel like Christmas? Hmmm…not sure…
Back in May I had a chat with Ronnie Gurr at Hanging Around Books about a photo of Jim that I would have liked to have gotten a copy of from the photographer who took it, but I looked into their prices (without enquiring with them directly) and saw they wanted over £1000 for a…
As we approach the end of this rather strange and turbulent year, there is still so much relevance I hear in a song like 20th Century Promised Land – so much so, I thought it could actually be renamed “2020 Promised Land”. “Great times in commotion. Here comes every day, it only lasts an hour.”…

I think this one slipped under the radar for the majority of 2020, but here we are. At last!

A new bootleg has been uploaded to YouTube from the ever elusive but ever fabulous Art & Talk. This one hails from the Real To Real Cacophony Tour of 1979/80 and is performed in Hamburg on March 5th, 1980. And although still seen as the Real To Real Cacophony Tour, there are tracks from Empires…
Photos and video from George Square and by the GoMA and The Duke also. The Christmas tree was on display in Queen Street Station. Poor Queen St – she ain’t no Central, but she’s looks a little prettier right now…
