May contain a heavy dose of Jim Kerr
Back in 1985/6 when I bought my copy of Once Upon A Time, it was Ghostdancing that was my favourite track…followed by Sanctify Yourself, followed by Alive And Kicking. And I was a very, very bad girl at the time, and didn’t like Come A Long Way much and would skip it. Oops! That changed…
Wow! Always good to do the occasional Getty Images search. I can’t embed these from Getty…so, I may get in the shitter for sharing them but…just…OMG! Getty photo link HERE Getty photo link HERE Getty photo link HERE Getty photo link HERE
To the blog. A new little topic/subject matter on a weekly basis. I mean…Kerrsday Thursday has pretty much run its course.

In the early days of Spotify, I would search by genre and just listen to bands and artists I’d never heard of before. Pollyn were one such group…
OH MY GOOD LORD! On the rarity scale of Simple Minds memorabilia…fewer things could be more highly prized (a GLITTERING PRIZE indeed!) than the Glittering Prize compilation on laser disc. Just…wow! Was almost as much as a house mortgage…but hey ho! The Good News From The Next World vinyl is STILL shrink wrapped and unplayed! …
