The 12 points of the day...

Playlist
Various Composers - Fete Baroque Vol 2
Bryan Ferry - Solo Albums
The Czars - Sorry I Made You Cry

What did I do today?

1. Went to FOPP for a browse whilst listening to Bryan Ferry, found the last Czars album for £6 and bought it...

2. Researched accomodation for a trip to Ireland...

3. Spoke with sister Pam on the phone to arrange a get together on Saturday before she heads back down South - her friend Debbie left today - apparently she described me as "great" - which is great, cos, as you know, I was very drunk indeed on the only occasion I met her...

4. Discussed with Anne, arrangements for Friday evening, when we're having a home-made-curry-and-wine-tour-of-the-world-night with Anne's siblings and their respective partners. Brother in law Keith is on a course of steroids to allow him to be in Meg the Black Cat's company for any length of time...

5. Watched two episodes of "Coronation St" taped last night. Fixed the clock on the video to stop us from missing the last two minutes of future episodes of "Coronation St"...

6. Transferred the Czars album to the hard drive in preparation for loading into the Jukebox...

7. Made some lovely coffee (and drank it)...

8. Watched some of the first half of Liverpool v Barcelona...

9. Checked the Queen of the South v St Johnstone score on teletext despite the commentary being on the radio as, listening to the latter would doom the Queens to defeat - they won 1-0 and have now beaten both of the top two sides in the league in the last four days...

10. Watched "CSI" live whilst taping "Life on Mars" - I would rather have done it the other way round to avoid the five minute ad breaks, but we have a couple of "Life on Mars" episodes on tape already and don't want to watch them out of order...

11. Surfed my favourite blogs, some of which I've not read for a week or so due to musicking etc. Deleted some from my links and added a few new ones (and brought some back)...

12. Updated the blog whilst listening to The Czars...

Highlight of the Day : Queen of the South winning again...

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!
