I agree.. I still find sparkle in the rain good, but this is just a golden year for simple minds full of creativity and everything on this album is just right every note clicked

Yes I agree, But it also had to do with the don't you forget about me video..
I also love everything from 1984/78 of simple minds more then the 85/95 time 98-2002 was pretty good though very creative.. 2005 black and white was good though I find graffiti soul less creative then black and white

forbes was booted oot for failing to turn up at rehearsals and womanising.
kerr did what anyone with backbone would have done and booted him out.
as for mcneil he was depressed playing keyboards and was not happy.

I was reminded the other day that Derek Forbes left over disagreements about the musical direction of the band. Is ti any wonder - in the space of about 2-3 years they went from this musical and critical zenith to utter garbage. When Forbes recently and briefly returned his second departure was for the same reason. I think it is fair to conclude Forbes pushed the band into a seriously artistic and creative zone which Kerr and Burchill hated. Sad, so sad.

I always feel that this, and Hunter and the Hunted are a pair.. it just goes to show there isnt a wasted second or a wasted note on NGD, this was apparently about JFK, dont see it myself though....
talk about sublime and the last 2 minutes is one of the amazing ends to a song i have ever ever heard ! i would put new gold dream up against any album ever made and it would wipe the floor with it ! unique in every way!!!
