Black & White 050505

One of Scotland's most successful bands, they defined a generation, have scored over twenty Top 20 hits in a career spanning nearly three decades. They have sold over thirty million records, had five #1 albums, a #1 single in America - plus three American Top Ten singles and have been voted Q magazine's world's best live act. Now after a three year hiatus Simple Minds are back with their best CD since New Gold Dream, called Black and White 050505. Jim Kerr & co-founder Charlie Burchill sound every bit as good as they did at the height of their fame in the '80s. Mixed by the legendary Bob Clearmountain (Roxy Music, Rolling Stones, INXS), Black & White is a very strong & contemporary album with an anthemic, epic sound that embodies everything the band was ever revered for. 9 total tracks. Sanctuary. 2005. * No US release until early 2006!
