New Gold Dream

Description

Rather accustomed to local successes without real consequences for the band's career, it was only with the release of their sixth album, New Gold Dream, that the Scots of Simple Minds would achieve international success and establish themselves as an essential new wave band. The meticulous production of this album and Jim Kerr's voice allowed it to reach the top of the charts and cross the borders of the United Kingdom. The single "Promised You a Miracle" became the banner and musical signature of the band. - ("excerpt from the Discothèque Idéale Fnac guide")
