No hair, no stars....

Playlist
Rush - Snakes and Arrows
Krommer - Oboe Quintets & Quartets
Rheostatics - Final Concert (Full Concert Download)
Carl Palmer - Live in Europe (DVD)
Peter Gabriel - Still Growing Up (DVD)
Rheostatics - Best of (1CD-R)

Spent the morning updating the diary for the Ireland trip whilst listening to the entire last concert by Rheostatics - a soundboard sourced recording is now available for download over at the Rheostatics Live website...

In the afternoon, watched a Carl Palmer DVD - not greatly impressive - though his drumming was, the bassist's bassing was and the guitarist's guitaring was - the whole never quite made it for me - bring back ELP...

Shaved my head and face after the pathetic hair build up over the last week...

Then the Gabriel DVD - superb musicianship and showmanship all round - Arctic Monkeys my backside I say...

Though that is of course a whole different kettle of monkeys...

Phoned old chum Jorg to wish him a Happy Birthday - 26 years ago tonight since I was lying on my back on a hillside in Germany and saw a big shooting star...

In the evening to Armadale to pick up Meg the Black Cat - she appears to have enjoyed her holidays but was back at home within minutes of being back at home - if you see what I mean...

Took down my birthday cards, including these two home made ones from nephew Ollie...

...and Niece Kitty...

All over for another year...

Highlight of the Day : The Return of Meg the Black Cat

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!
