May contain a heavy dose of Jim Kerr
Lol. I’m obviously going through some kind of….internal crisis or something. Lol. I dunno. But doing these silly things are a great distraction right now. It has me concentrating on Christmas whilst simultaneously doing absolutely FUCK ALL about Christmas. I haven’t even put the tree up yet. Its been sitting in its box via the…
THAT’S the title that Record Collector could (or SHOULD) have gone with for their piece on SM in their latest edition. There’s a great interview with Jim in there and … OH MY DAYS! HAPPY KERRSDAY! A Sheila Rock gem inside too (see pic)! A rare one for Sheila to get Jim covered up. Lol….
I hadn’t mentioned this in my previous post about Sheila Rock (“Jim’s not a poser”. Haha! In the strictest terms of how Sheila was defining “a poser” – then, yeah, he’s probably not one. I’ll give her that) but those photos she had been sharing on her Instagram account for the SAF photoshoot will be…
Sheila Rock tries to tell me that Jim is ‘not a poser’ but I have proof to the contrary. Click for more!
I had discussions about this with Malcolm Garrett as he said he was feeling a little nervous and overwhelmed to be asked to contribute to it (I think it might be this particular release anyway). He at least spoke to me about Sheila bringing out a book and I am guessing this may be the…

Ever wondered about those two blurred beauties photographed in action on the covers of Love Song and Sons And Fascination (and no, I don’t mean Jim and Charlie. Lol)? Well, I can tell you they are two 1960s American classic cars. One is a red 1969 Plymouth Sport Fury and the other is a black…
So…my Facebook feed tonight threw this one up at me. A piece of poetry I wrote. It was based on going out for a meal in Sydney’s northern suburbs with my sister to a place called Sambal. There we are outside it. One of my favourite dishes is laksa and this place were doing a…
Not exactly sure of the date. It just came to me as a clipping. I got it because of that Shelia Rock photo of Jim. God, that is such a wonderful photoshoot. There are some beautiful images of Jim in that white outfit – the jaiket and the “jodpurs” as he called them once. I…
