Oh, And Just For Good Measure…
This one! Jim Kerr…you are a beautiful, beautiful man! ?? (I do love to embarrass myself on an almost DAILY basis.)

The Mature Laird Dash Fandango…
Oh, he’s like a fine wine…or a great cheese (I know! Lol. It’s a crap analogy, but I don’t drink wine…so I had to compare it to something I actually enjoy)…he has aged well. I never thought I would see a “mature” LDF…but, here he is. Look at that fine cut of a man! That…
Holy Batshit, Robin!!
This farking ROCKS! I have been anticipating this. I wasn’t totally won over by Derek Forbes’s album, Echoes…I just didn’t get why he wanted to go over old ground (I know! Rather hypocritical of me seeing as I’ve been kind of swept along with the whole “Simple Minds Acoustic” schtick)…but I just had this feeling…
Some LDF Fun
I’ve been working on a massive art project. Massive for me, at least! My first proper piece of commissioned work. It has been both wonderfully exciting, yet laborious and stressful at the same time. The rewards await. The main reward being (not the monetary aspect, not the fact that my work will potentially be seen…
Had A Vinyl Spin Tonight
Some newly acquired stuff by The Anchoress, a touch of Minds, and a play of Blackstar. This really is my current favourite version of Promised You A Miracle. Jim’s vocal is right up in the mix on this. I love it! I like the stuff on the Acoustic album, I do. But there are tracks…
Jim Kerr Interview With Nostalgie
And interview with Jim with Belgian station Nostalgie. Thanks to Mandy on Facebook for alerting me to this. 🙂

Of course, I knew of Vettriano, but had never really looked at much of his work. He really does have his own very obvious style. You could see a painting of his and quite…
Shrine Building Continues
Wanted to have the picture discs accompanied with something to fill the space. I thought of CD covers and was initially going to keep a theme and have Promised You A Miracle and Glittering Prize or SSIS in the frame…but they were a bit big (they were old style single sleeve CD cover inserts in…
The Best Screengrab!
I love this picture of Jim holding up a picture of David! Melting heart…melting heart! ?? I had a go at taking away the writing with my editing app. Not 100% done…but good enough. I can’t take the credit for the screengrab. That’s from fanpage.it – as is the interview video it came from. Watch…
Simple Minds Acoustic – My Personal Album Review
Having involved myself with a great simultaneous live “listen to” on the Simple Minds International Facebook group…I thought I’d share my thoughts on the album, track by track. Now, if you are a reader of my blog and/or know me from the Simple Mimds fanbase, you probably know that if I don’t like something, I…
