Let There Be Love – Video Stills
Working on part two of the video stills montage – in readiness for Kerrsed Thursday (my attempt to have less Jim Kerr and more actual Simple Minds content on this blog – will explain more this coming Thursday). Anyway….here are some rejected stills that didn’t make the cut. I call this one the “F***! I stubbed…
Jim Kerr Interview at Mandela Day Concert 1988
He is obviously very, very nervous in this interview. Even in the earliest of interviews, I’ve never seen him stammer or tick SO much. Obvisously the enormity of the event got to him a little…and being interviewed by the revered music journalist, Paul Gambaccini. I feel like a voyeur for wanting to watch these clips…

Why I Love…Citizen (Dance of Youth)
A wonderfully political snapshot of Eastern Europe of the late 1970s. If you think Simple Minds only became political in the mid to late 80s…listen to this and you know you’re mistaken. I know I go on about Jim’s songwriting, but I do for a reason, it’s bloody good!! His words are just always so…
