clue please

I thought Brummie must be losing his grip, as I'd solved all but the last clue by Saturday lunchtime; then I came to 19d. "Pure and simple, back to front man is burgeoning. (8)" E-E-G-N- It has to be either "EMERGENT" or "EMERGING" and I favour the former as it ends in "GENT" for "man", but how does "REME" link to "Pure and simple" ?
Emergent - 'mere' (pure & simple; back 'e' to front) + 'gent' (man)
Mere(pure and simple) with last letter to front + gent

Thanks, both of you. I'd clearly misinterpreted "back to front".
