Street for Roberto IV Mick MacNeil plays Street Fighting Years Simple Minds

[@conorslattery9519]

Michael Macneil is the best!! all experimwnts go back to him and simple minds

[@kieranbegley]

Mick and Charlie came up with some great melodies, SM were never the same when Mick left. Oh how I miss him

[@chrisjbell]

This is unspeakably beautiful. Mick may or maybe not know this, but he’s a genius.

[@jonzilkow7272]

Indeed!

[@jean-louisfau6036]

[@dinotrincas9620]

Mike MacNeil...the Deep Heart of Simple Minds....and without him,there's a Little left

[@elmarkunz1586]

My all time fav of Simple Minds. Epic, symphonic, iconic. Thank you Mick

[@ginobeizz8227]

Grazie Maestro ❤

[@williamhastie5056]

Absolutely beautiful piece of music. It took me right back to Meadowbank Stadium in 1989. All these years later I can still remember “When Spirit’s Rise” blasting out then the fantastic bass intro of Street Fighting Years played by Malcolm Foster. Thank you Mick for your ingenuity and sheer brilliance when you were with the band. We miss you more than you will ever know but we have the memories and a fantastic back catalogue of your work. Take it easy and say hello to your brother Robert. I went to Bellarmine School with him back in the day when you were recording Empires & Dance and Sons & Fascination. You and Derek Forbes signed a big stack of Simple Minds vinyl that I left at your mums house in Lunderston Drive. You scribbled “America ‘84” above your signature on an American import of New Gold Dream. I can remember your Gold Disc from Virgin being up on your mums wall. Take care and thanks. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Fantastic concert, with Texas and The Silencers. It doesn't get much better than that

[@challengerjetdriver]

Mick and SimpleMinds were my musical and recording inspiration, thank you for this gift and the years of appreciating your music.

[@magicanimalfish1029]

Wow!! This is awesome....

[@jonzilkow7272]

Mick is what made Simple Minds great in the 80’s along with Mel and Derek.

[@robertaguilera4042]

When they left , they lost me as a fan

[@harry.mfowlie9368]

total class Mick ,,,,,,street fighting years is epic ,,,what a Album,,,,,,,,,

[@totofan962]

Beautiful, simply beautiful. Tears and goosebumps.

[@exactsame]

I’ve listened to Simple Minds for over 4 decades and have come to the conclusion Mick was to Simple Minds, what the Edge is to U2 That good!

[@robertaguilera4042]

Your perception is totally 💯 Charlie and Mel , were also very very talented , but they played around Mick

[@stevestephens8969]

Sorry, but you could replace the Edge for sure, but Simple Minds were never able to replace Mick, he was the ' keystone'' of a Musical era the like of which will never be repeated. He is that Good. .

[@ChaumetJean-Pierre]

Sublime musique ! Mike est extraordinaire.

[@GianlucaBernardi-y3y]

Complimenti a Robert e a Mick. Complimenti davvero! Voi non potete sapere... non potete immaginare le volte che ho ascoltato e canticchiato nella mia mente, in giro, da solo, a casa; questa canzone e soprattutto l'intro. (Anche dal live- film di Verona 1989-90)Una meraviglia, una perla di canzone che porto nel mio cuore e con la tastiera di Mick in primo piano che conferisce alla canzone una incidenza assoluta. Ancora grazie infinite, grazie infinite! Per lei Robert, Mick e tutti quelli che vi seguono le cose piu' belle🌄🏞️🌅 dal vostro futuro e con premuroso affetto.🤝 Da Imola, 🏍️🏎️Emilia Romagna, Italia, Gian Luca.

[@GianlucaBernardi-y3y]

Grazie di tutto ❤!

The man was the brains behind Simple Minds

[@luciarinaldi7620]

Grazie Mick di cuore 💗 your touch is fantastic ❤

[@andydobson9799]

My favourite SM track and I love their music. This is so wonderful. Would love to see Mick involved with the band again, touring or writing or both!

[@detlefthomsen9828]

Ich wünschte Mick würde eine CD dieser Art von den Simple Minds herausbringen. Er ist und war der Beste Pianist der Simple Minds ❤😊

[@totofan962]

Er war prägend für den Sound der Simple Minds. Der größte Verlust in der Geschichte der Band. Nie wieder danach waren sie so gut, wie mit Michael. Und na klar mit Mel und Derek.

[@Gkirby001]

Absolutely beautiful

[@davetracey6581]

Truly incredible, music for the soul!!!

[@filippotraetta2808]

[@tonimasson7057]

brilliant

[@danielamonti712]

thank you for this absolute masterpiece. shivers with emotion. I chose it to dedicate to my mother who passed away just 2 years ago. Grazie Mick🥹

[@TAMUGNO]

Amo questa canzone, sei un grande

[@HistoricalOne9805]

I can only imagine the other bandmates reaction when Michael played this masterpiece for them. They must have been speechless. I love all of Simple Minds work, but Michael MacNeil's era was the best by far...

[@robertaguilera4042]

Probably the most beautiful and complex SM song ever

[@mikeshackleton4468]

Superb 🙏

[@pablodollard50337]

@@robertaguilera4042 I agree - it's a composition 🌟hard to sum up in words. doesn't follow the typical song / hit formula of a chart band at that time. I'm a SM purist a longtime - in awe now of the early stuff - but I love this tune - and don't shoot me - real life had some great standout moments too. 🙌

[@hervelebrun9950]

mick reviens avec simple minds ils ont tant besoin de toi car tu restera le seul et je dis bien le seul clavieriste de simple minds

[@sergiomelluso614]

Si la música no mueve sentimientos no es música, solo es rítmo. Pero en este caso lleva el sentimiento al extremo! No me canso de escucharla.

[@GianlucaBernardi-y3y]

Grazie di tutto ❤!

[@calle68]

So beautiful ... where I can get the score? I own the original SM score for this album, but not at this detail.

[@robertaguilera4042]

Hello it’s was a gift for me . I have the audio , guess I’m the luckiest man in Earth

[@matteocarta3853]

No Mick no SM

[@debbieaustin7072]

Totally agree.

[@jonzilkow7272]

Indeed

[@MrChippiechappie]

Unfortunately Jim and Charlie are too stubborn and pig headed to ask him back and he has said in past interviews he is open to doing something with them again but Jim has yet to contact him. Imagine one last album and too with the classic line up they would make a fortune. If I were Jim and Charlie I would be moving heaven and Earth to make it happen.
