Almost at the finishing line...

Playlist
Cloudland Blue Quartet - Ersatzreal

This has been a good weekend for the new CD, with significant progress having been made...

Although I was up late following last night's escapades, I managed four hours' work tidying up songs, re-recording a couple of vocals and doing a bit of remixing before we headed into town, parking by the castle and going into The Hub with a view to purchasing tickets for some shows at this year's Jazz Festival..

Alas the box office was shut on a Sunday...

We wandered around the Old Town and had a coffee and a roll at Uncle T's Mediterranean Cafe before returning home...

I worked again on the album before we went to Anne's mum's for tea - brother in law Bobby's birthday tea while sister in law Jane was in Glasgow for George Michael - she has not very good taste in music....

Back home, finished off the album work and burned the latest mock up...

Prior to this weekend, I'd done nothing since 21 April other than listen and think...

Now, I'd say it's finished other than debating whether to add electric guitar here and there - which I probably will...

Relaxed with last night's Dr Who and the return of an old adversary - kept well under wraps - in the first of another exciting two parter...

Highlight of the Day : Almost finishing the album

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!
