Crispycat Recordings: Sleeping in the debris...

Sleeping in the debris...

Stayed in today as some gasmen were coming to replace our meter - or rather move it from under our stairs to outside the house. One of them had the glamourous task of crawling under our floorboards to connect stuff up. I certainly couldn't squeeze through the hole which allows access - so good on the young, thin chap.

Other than that excitement I burned quite a few CDs to restock the Crispycat supplies of CBQ and James Jamieson.

I also ran through our set for tomorrow night on my own - doesn't sound as good surprisingly enough...Jamie should be back from Ireland by now but is probably in no fit state to get together so our next run-through wil be the actual performance tomorrow.

Burned a couple of new CDs for the car - "Now That's What I (i.e. me, Mr CBQ) Call A Good Album" for May and June 2005...one track each from my top ten albums from each month - you can see these by clicking on the link to My Monthly Top Ten Albums....

Meg the Black Cat could've been out and about all day but instead chose to spend it sleeping amongst all the "stuff" that's been piling up over the last week or so...that's her curled up on the bed

Sleepy cat....

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!
