New Release – Live in the City of Diamonds

New Release – Live in the City of Diamonds

Simple Minds were a fantastic live band from the get-go, yet despite that, it took them almost a decade before they released their first official live album. The hunger was there from the fanbase as many bootlegs exchanged hands from the earliest days. Now, barely a year goes by without the band milking yet another…

A Reminder – Solstice Kiss 12″ Vinyl Out Tomorrow – Among Other Things!

A Reminder – Solstice Kiss 12″ Vinyl Out Tomorrow – Among Other Things!

Just a quick reminder that the yellow and black spatter coloured 12″ vinyl release of the Solstice Kiss single is officially out in the record shops tomorrow. I pre-ordered mine some time back so will most likely not see it until Monday (as I won’t be here for its delivery if it arrives either tomorrow…

SM News Wrap-Up: Pianos and Green Vinyl

SM News Wrap-Up: Pianos and Green Vinyl

First off is Holyrood High showing off its new piano which a “substantial donation” from Jim and Charlie afforded the school to get a higher standard of kit than they were initially able to target themselves. It’s been imaginatively decorated, extolling the talent that has emerged from the city and surrounds over the decades with…

Summer Swag

Summer Swag

Have acquired these over the past few days and looking forward to devoting some time to them very shortly. Already have spent some time perusing the Bryan Ferry Lyrics book. I didn’t realise there was a foreword in it and a short piece by Bryan himself. Mother Of Pearl has been a firm favourite since…

Classic Pop News

Okay, as one of the “still managing to hold on in there“ printed publications (due to folks like me keeping up with their subscriptions, I’m guessing) – it’s a bit of old news now, but at least Classic Pop has printed the info. Feel a little let down that they never put in a live…

Cannoli Get Better?

Good news from His Nibs today in his latest post. A number of good news pieces, for him – Villa Angela has once again opened its doors (just in case that whole “being the frontman for the best live band in the world” suddenly starts to go all pear-shaped after 40+ years, like). Whilst it…

New Memes – Heavy Night

Off topic for a reputed Simple Minds blog but… I think this band is just about my favourite of the young Glasgow bands about at the moment and ONE DAY I’ll brave going to see them live. Over the past couple of years they’ve released several singles. Billy Sloan has been a champion of them…
