Heaven knows...

Playlist
Miles Davis – The Best of the Miles Davis Quintet 1965-68
Miles Davis – Sorceror
John Coltrane – Coltrane’s Sound
Cloudland Blue Quartet – The Best of CBQ 1996-2006

Invited a few people along to Saturday’s gig via e-mail (the Crispycat mailing list) and Myspace – it’ll be interesting to see if anyone turns up...

I am struggling now to be fit in time – with two days to go, my throat’s as bad as ever and it’s hard to catch my breath without coughing...

So absolutely no singing tonight...

...and hardly any talking as Anne was out to see “The Break Up” with her friend Michelle and came home proclaiming it “good”...

Meanwhile I stayed in and spent time designing the inside cover for the new Best of CD I will try and sell at the Fringe gigs...

I’d wanted to go along to Out of the Bedroom but just didn't feel up to it...

Tomorrow night we’re going to see comedian Richard Herring’s 2006 Fringe Show and I’m looking forward to that and hoping I’m feeling a bit better by then...

Highlight of the Day : Pretty miserable day today (despite the scorching weather)...

So all you need to do now is come along to a gig and buy the album...

Or I suppose you could right click on the image and save it to your hard drive...

Glad to see my readers are liking my artworks...; 5:53 am

The girl is, of course, Anne..; 10:20 pm

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!
