Minimal...

Playlist
Dvorak - String Quartet in E Major, Opus 80
Kenny Dorham - Matador/Inta Somethin'
Cloudland Blue Quartet - Souvenir XIII

Up early again today and updated the blog for the last couple of days before going downstairs with Meg the Black cat and listening to a Dvorak String Quartet and a Kenny Dorham album whilst perusing a book on Minimalism - the perfect start to a Sunday...

No sign of Anne by 11 am so I decided to work on simplifying the drums for the CBQ live backing tracks....

Anne eventually surfaced for brunch around 12 and I drove to the local shop for some croissants and rolls for brunch...

After two episides of "Desperate Housewives" I remixed the backing tracks and, for the "Souvenir" EP, re-recorded one of the vocals completely and one line on another track with a lyric change suggested by Anne last night...

Designed the cover in a minimalist style....



...and then we headed to Anne's mum's for the family tea. Niece Kitty was on top form today, chatting away twenty to the dozen and generally being a delightful child...

Tonight's telly, for me, comprised "Coronation St" and "Match of the Day 2", in between which I tweaked the CD cover text-wise and listened back to what I hope will be the final version of this 9 song "Extended Play"...

Highlight of the Day : Early morning listening

Your blog has simply fallen off my Bloglines. Which is odd... that's not happened to anyone else's.
