May contain a heavy dose of Jim Kerr
I posted this on my Facebook feed just now and decided to add it here. I’d love to ask Jim his thoughts on it…but I may as well call to Ailsa Craig for all the good it will do. I no longer feel comfortable with posting things to SMOG and that would most likely be…
There have been some other great reviews coming in for Graeme Thomson’s Themes For Great Cities book. Firstly, Classic Pop magazine gave a glowing review. And recently, both Uncut and Electronic Sound magazines have reviewed it. The Electronic Sound review is succinct yet wonderfully positive. The Uncut review gives the book an 8/10 and its…
From the makers of Uncut magazine – a WHOLE 124 page special edition on the Velvet Underground, and their individual members. I have only taken a quick glance through it so far – but it looks pretty extensive…and dare I say possibly more insightful than the documentary? I am still finding myself aghast that with…
With just under a week to go before the release of the new Field Music offering, Flat White Moon, the Brewis brothers look back through their musical output over the past 16 years with Uncut magazine.

A sad day in music with the passing of reggae stalwart, Toots Hibbert. Only recently had Uncut magazine featured an extensive spread on Toots and The Maytals.
In this month’s latest copy of Uncut, there is a short interview with Catherine about the collaborative work with Bernard Butler resulting in the album as well as a very positive review of the album itself. The album is due for release on September 18th and is available to pre-order HERE
Something for Kerrsday. Sexiest Dick Whittington there (n)ever was! And I double checked with her – Virginia is adamant she didn’t notice his bum in the mirror when she took the photo. Lol
I love this story that George Underwood tells of him and David Bowie going to see Little Richard. It’s part of Uncut magazine’s big obit to Little Richard. I had read the story some time back – but it bears repeating. If there is really such a thing as heaven and those of us deemed…
