Re: Simple Minds In Inverness

I was talking about this with someone at work t'other day - I think there was some shite Guardian blog on bands who carry on when the lead-singer croaks etc...I did point out that 3/4 of the band are there, which is more valid than Pink Floyd in the 80's-90's with only 1/2 the original members in the band.

I do think that Stuart Adamson was a very distinctive singer and guitarist - 'The Crossing' and 'Steeltown' were pretty fine albums...though the guitars-as-bagpipes thing didn't work for everyone. Still, he's not on this plain anymore, so what can they do? It's not for me - I'd love to hear the first two albums from the original band with maybe an encore of 'Wonderland' and 'The Seer' , but will just stick with the records...Mike Peters is probably a better front person than the bassist, who was apparently the lead vocalist - which doesn't work unless Lemmy, Phil Lynott, or J-C
