Today is the birthday of 2 famous Scots.
The first, is none other than the legendary late Ronald Belford! Who is that you ask? Well, take a look at this…

The Late, Great Bon Scott (July 9th, 1946 – February 19th, 1980)! The original (and some say the best) singer for Australia’s AC/DC.
Happy Birthday Bon, wherever you are…
The second Scottish Birthday Boy is singer-songwriter Jim Kerr (b. 1959), frontman for long-standing Scottish band Simple Minds, who happen to be this photographers favorite band!
Most people know Simple Minds from their one-big-hit “Don’t You Forget About Me“, from the 80’s Film Classic ‘The Breakfast Club‘. However, they have a 30+ year career, with many great songs that you may not have heard before, so let’s check out a couple, shall we?
Here’s “Someone, Somewhere, In Summertime”…

Yes, you are right! Charlie Burchill does wear his guitar too high! But it’s not his birthday is it?
Here’s “East At Easter”…
