Happy Heavenly Birthday Kirsty!

October 10, 2022 3 Comments

Today would have been Kirsty’s 63rd birthday.

Here she is performing the classic ‘Soho Square’ at El Mocambo in Toronto, Canada on 15th November 1993.

I’ve been listening to her music a lot this week, especially the Kite and Titanic Days albums. I miss her talent so much. She was such a master of matching tone to lyrics.

Happy birthday, Kirsty MacColl. The best at music of all time and a hero throughout her life in a way that continues to resonate to so many.

I hope to be in England someday; ideally for Kirstyfest but maybe just to see the bench. Many thanks to you all for this excellent website.

Here’s hoping we hear some of those mysterious demo recordings before the next ten ten.

Here is a video of Jean Newlove that I’d posted to YouTube a few years ago. [Link deleted]

  Thank you Abe. I hope you get to Kirstyfest soon. Everyone is friendly and welcoming.
  
  I have enjoyed the unreleased demos.
  
  I have seen that video of Jean before. It’s brilliant footage from the 1940s.

and freeworld gets a small commission each time. Best of all, it costs you nothing extra!

If you don’t wish to buy from amazon you can still help me out by sending a donation via Paypal, all donations most welcome, no matter how small!

Why not donate monthly?

You don’t get any additional site content, you just get to feel good about yourself :o) We would offer a smaller amount but it would just disappear in paypal fees.
