What passes for summer...

A quiet day today...it's another scorcher here in sunny Edinburgh...these are the days we expect at this time of year but the few days we do get like this between May and August constitute what passes for summer here...

Probably just as well as I don't like it too hot...

I finish off what might be the new CBQ soundscapes CD tonight - four ten minutes scapes plus four three minute interludes, all of which I shall meld together on the hard drive and listen to over the coming days and weeks, deciding whether to allow it into other peoples' homes....

No word from James Jamieson so I will call him tomorrow to arrange rehearsals for the upcoming gigs on 21 and 25 August...

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!
