The Stranglers – Best Live Band In The World? Could Be!

   Yes, this *is* a Simple Minds (Jim Kerr) blog, but last night I think I may have seen the best gig in my ENTIRE life! And considering recent connections between The Stranglers and Simple Minds – well, I can discuss the gig here. It’s *my* blog – sod it! They just hit the ground…

RSD 2016 Minds Offerings & Related Wares.

I have to say, I can’t help but be a *TAD* cynical about Record Store Day. I’m in two minds…if it helps independent record stores stay afloat, that’s great. But I can’t help but feel all these “collectors items” offerings to promote the day does…seem…rather more about the shifting of goods than anything else. Given…

Kerrsday Thursday – Unorthodox Mic Holding: Modern Boy

   Now, as I decided on the theme for this week, I thought it would be comprising of young Jim pics and footage….but this one was in my photos folder – so there we are!  And it’s a pretty fab photo too. Sadly, I don’t have details on the photographer. I know – my bad…

Yay And Squeeeee And WOOT!!!

I got it!!!! I got a copy of the Ltd Ed 1 of 3000 of Sister Feelings Call! Hope it’s not number 666. Lol. That’ll be hilarious if so.  Hope it’s something sweet like 931…Jim’s and my birthdates (or conversely 319). Lol. Oh, HOW BAD DO I HAVE IT????! Lol. Oh, it can be ANY…

Curiouser And Curiouser…Gold Dreamer

   Hmmm…have to say I’m intrigued by this one. Not seen or heard of it until today. Not available to listen to anywhere that I can see. It would appear Jim recorded the vocal for it, which adds to the intrigue.  It’s currently on eBay up for auction. Might chase it, if only so I…

Why I Love…King Is White And In The Crowd

It’s that amazing bass to start. Derek Forbes always does great reverb chords. Mick’s synths give a great Eastern mystique to the music.   Jim’s words, again. I don’t know HOW he manages to conjure up SSOO much imagery in so few words. He is a master of the short and succinct (I wish I had…

Like Father…

   Looking for a different picture today in my pictures folder and seeing this one, I was like…wow! James looks so much like Jim in this one! Had never really taken that in before. And it’s just a great pic of the boys in general. Brian’s snazzy hat. Mick’s smirk. Charlie holding on to a…
