Crispycat Recordings: A Place For You

A Place For You

I've chosen this song to be the "older" song on the first CD single for 2005. I've just spent the last couple of hours or so trying to work out the chords for it and, in particualr, its closing section. It's a track from my album "Liverysilver" from 1991 and, in those days when I wrote I recorded at the same time so I never wrote any chord sequences down, I just played them into the keyboard to programme them. Hmm, that now seems rather short-sighted. But it's getting there. The lead track will be what's probably going to be the first track on the "Deeperdown" album, "Love and War" while the live track will be, at this stage anyway, "All The Flowers In The World pt 2", originally from "Callingstill".

I need to spend some time trying out arrangements for "A Place For You" so back to the guitar....

Crispycat Latest Release

"I know I produce an awful lot of music, which can make it hard to keep up. But, at the end of each year since 2021, I've produced a tasty compilation ("The Originals") featuring one track from each release. So, every year, if you're only going to buy one CBQ album, make it that one!" "Twentytwentyfour: The Originals" is a 130 minute selection of tracks from the fifteen 2024 releases by Cloudland Blue Quartet. The collection is issued in anticipation of (and includes a track from) the fifteenth and final record of the year, "Twentytwentyfour", a multi disc compilation of rare and previously unreleased recordings made by CBQ throughout 2024, which is due on 31 December.

Cloudland Blue Eclectic Selection

In a one-man crusade to encourage the world to broaden its musical horizons, David has been broadcasting a weekly Eclectic Selection of music from across his vast record collection since 2014. On the programme each week, you'll hear 25 Tracks, kicking off with David's LP of the Week, followed by his six other LPs of the day, three or so CBQ, or CBQ related, tracks, a single of the week (if there is one), a couple more singles (if there are any) and a further eclectic mix of other things new into the collection... It's eclectic!
