I JUST got an email from Simple Minds about their new album!
"Hot on the heels of their 30th Anniversary Celebration Tour that saw
them playing to over a quarter of a million people during their sold
out 2008 European/UK arena tour, and their performance at Nelson
Mandela's 90th Birthday concert in London's Hyde Park, Simple Minds are
about to enter the most prolific period within their extensive career
with the highly anticipated brand new album 'Graffiti Soul' due for
international release on May 25th by Universal Music Records label."
If you are worth your salt, you will recall that Simple Minds gave us such great hits as "Don't You (Forget About Me)" and "Alive and Kicking". 'Graffiti Soul' will be their 15th album.
Now, if they would just get their asses over to the US for some live dates ...
