May contain a heavy dose of Jim Kerr
About 8 hours of work, spread over the past two days. I’m sure it’s shit. I’ll probably end up hating it because I overcooked it. Anyways. I love Murder Story. Stay tuned tomorrow for my silly little LIAD anniversary post. Wish I could tell you I’m posting an interview with Jim on here…but alas, no….
You know sometimes when you see something … you’ve just been made aware of it but it happened just a couple of days prior so you missed it completely? Well…that just happened to me. I’m checking the local record stores, particularly those over the Hertfordshire border…to see what they’re stocking and their prices for Saturday’s…
What the hell did I do wrong, now? I was only trying to be light-hearted. Have a bit of fun. Is it “irrelevant” to ask to see a current pic of the lead singer of your fave band? Was it deemed rude? I didn’t swear. Any sense of innuendo was VERY THINLY LACED (he was…
A song you remember from your childhood – I chose this particular clip because it’s Countdown. I don’t really remember them performing on it, though I would have been watching Countdown at the time.

A song by an artist whose voice you love – Jim Kerr – you sing this beautifully. The ending melts my heart…

I worked on this earlier this evening. When I need to just….unwind…relax…get meditative, the art does it. The digital art does it. Jim does it. Focussing on him. Exemplifying his beauty. I know! I am solid gone. But today I don’t care. He is the best medicine I know. I can’t express how calming and…
A song that you think everybody should listen to – Of the Simple Minds canon, Careful In Career seems a particularly overlooked and undervalued piece. It’s amazingly atmospheric and moody and Jim’s vocal is just…the best thing. Ever.
People be jumping the gun re: Life In A Day 40th anniversary. Lots of celebrating today…but there is an official Zoom press release from the time on the Dream Giver Redux site showing the release date to be April 13th…so I will be holding my horses until then. BUT…in preparation for it, you can read…
