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…

I Am Kerr-sed
“The Kerr-sed”? Yes. That’s kinda how I feel. But I love it! I love him. If you’d said to me that wanting to explore Simple Minds’ music would result in me having such a HUGE obsession and crush…on Jim Kerr, I’d have thought you’d need psychiatric help! Lol Well, that’s going a bit far…but I…
Jim Kerr: Stand-Up?
Lol. Seriously…I could not love this man any more if I tried. Thanks to the time diff. my reply came a little too late for a response, yet…anyway. But, if he DOES enter the comedy circuit, he might need to consider a name change… A Jim Kerr AND a Jimmy Carr out on the circuit…
