Jim Kerr Sparkle Era Promo Photo 1984
Another “Sparkle” era promo shot of Jim Kerr. This suit is the same he wears on the cover of Smash Hits magazine in Dec, 1983 and the suit he’s wearing in the Waterfront video.
Sparkle In The Rain/Waterfront Promo Photos 1983
Sequence of photos of Simple Minds during Sparkle In The Rain promotional touring, late ‘83/early ’84. It was a cold old day! They’re all pretty rugged up – except for Mick, he’s used to those Barra gales :-)) The first photo is another of my faves of Jim. That tousled hair is gorgeous!
Jim Kerr In All His 1982 Beauty
I wish this photo was in colour! I’ve seen it in colour – and have shared it here…but it’s not in the same clarity with this one and was part of a montage. Jim’s make-up in this shot is INSANE! And his eyes look AMAZING! He is just too beautiful! I think my eyes may…
Hawt Bhoys In Black And White
Shared a very similar photo in colour recently. Love it in black and white too. They’re such lovely looking boys! Even Derek 😉 (I’m joking! – and I mean I’m joking about the “even Derek” bit. Big Dan has his own “hawt” thing going on – he’s just not MY particular cup of chai)
Simple Minds in 1981 Photoset
Montage of Simple Minds photos, circa 1981. From the book “Simple Minds: A Visual Documentary” by Mike Wrenn, published in 1990.
Bring Me The Head of Herr Kerr
Jim Kerr, circa 1980 – a similar picture (most likely from the same set/gig/photographer) was used for the Early Gold CD released in 2003.
The Cherub of 1984
I love the way the scan completely lined this photo. Makes it even MORE arty. Jim Kerr – you are adorable! He looks positively CHERUBIC in this photo! I could fucking EAT HIM! Lol.
The Marquee Teen
Jim Kerr performing on stage at the Marquee montage, 3rd July 1979. Entry price was £1.00!! Jim was still only 19 years old here! He’ll be 20 six days later 🙂 Added info sourced from Dream Giver Redux
Brooding Bunch
The young bhoys. At top from left to right: Brian McGee, Derek Forbes, Mick MacNeil. Bottom, left to right: Jim Kerr, Charlie Burchill. Ooh, they are so serious! Jim is brooding and smouldering!! Charlie looks a bit pissed off and sad – which is ssooo odd for Charlie!
