A happy birthday today to my good old German chum, Jorg Sonnenschein...

Up very early and to the Post Office at 7 to pick up new supplies of ink re the big "Deeperdown" print job...

A fine and sunny day - my birthday always seems to herald the start of summer...

Spent all evening hand cutting covers and putting them together with the discs and boxes - all whilst listening to my own back catalogue - and why the hell not?? It's bloody good!!

Finished around 11:30...

Then surfed the web - mostly re Alice Cooper - and went to bed around 12:30 with my Jukebox playlist "Best of Alice" in my ears, as Meg the Black Cat snuggled down in amongst my discarded clothes....brave wee cat....

Highlight of the Day : Making huge progress on the Deeperdown project

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!
