Ironing and tidying - rock'n'roll, eh?

Playlist
David Sylvian - The Scent of Magnolia
Alanis Morissette - Jagged Little Pill

This morning I uploaded into the jukebox, the 3CD set of David Sylvian rarities I compiled a few years ago...

On listening back during the day, I was disappointed to hear a few skips - I hope the CDs themselves are ok...

Norwegian Jazz Guitarist, Haftor Medboe read my entry for the gig I went to see him play at The Jam House and left a message..

He promises will be more "jazz" at his upcoming gig at The Lot in the Grassmarket on 31 July. I urge you to attend...

Other than that piece of excitement, Ian Sclater called and asked if I might accompany him on his upcoming Fringe gigs and he would return the favour for CBQ...

One to mull over...

Tonight, two episodes of "Coronation Street", wrapped around a quite pathetic attempt by "Tonight with Trevor McDonald" to report on the property bubble in Dubai (very hard to feel any sympathy at all for anyone who's been stung out there in what must surely be the Blackpool of Arabia)...

Then "Still Game", the last in the series. I will miss my Monday night fix...

What else?

Ironing some shirts and tidying away some CDs...

Rock'n'roll, eh?

Highlight of the Day : Haftor Medboe read the diary

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!
