May contain a heavy dose of Jim Kerr
Had a go at tidying up the image of Jim in the SSIS fold-out poster with the 7” vinyl. Don’t know if any of you guys have a crease proof copy, but I don’t…and I have three of them! Lol. 30+ years of being folded up will do that. The crease stubbornly would fall all…

STOP MAKING ME HAVE UNSAVOURY THOUGHTS ABOUT YOU AND MICROPHONES! My beautiful Goth Prince: Laird Dash Fandango I’m the one needing a fan…
