Self portrait time...

Playlist
Various – Rock & Pop Jukebox on Shuffleplay
Various – Cloudland Blue Podcasts

With Anne out again tonight, this time on a Mother’s day inspired cinema visit (“Young Victoria”) and dinner with sister Jane and her mum, I made a rash decision to go for drinks with colleagues Kris, Gary and Keith and ex-colleague Ian...

L-R: Keith, Gary, Ian, Kris - Four Lovely Boys

We were joined by Gary’s partner Barry and several of Kris’ friends, one of whom owns the bar Amicus Apple, outside of which we stood, enjoying the late evening sun whilst quaffing bottles of Becks...

This found me on the Airport Bus later this evening (only 7:00pm mind you) looking rather the worse for wear (..and, erm, taking photos of myself)...

I then spent a couple of hours lawling on the settee muttering at people on the TV to stick their nonsense where the sun don’t shine, matey...

Finally got myself together and retired upstairs to finish off the posting of the podcasts of “one track each from every CD I acquire” and the conclusion of this coincided nicely with Anne’s return...

Sparks on Jonathon Ross singing “I Can’t Believe That You Would Fall For All the Crap in This Song”....

...rounded off the day nicely...

Highlight of the Day : Spring drinks with the boys...

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!
