Year in, year out...

Playlist
Various – Rock & Pop Jukebox on Shuffleplay
Various – Annual Top 10 Albums 1959-1983

You may have visited my blog entitled “Albums of the Year” on which I have listed (completely subjectively) my favourite 10 releases for each year from 1959 to now...

Dr Prog commented upon it yesterday while visiting, taking offence at the inclusion of so many “bad” Yes albums...

Today, to keep myself occupied, I copied a WAV file of one track from each of my top ten albums for the years 1959 to 1983 inclusive (that’s 250 albums) while the Exec Producer was out and about, taking tea in chum’s gardens and visiting Garden Centres with her sister and the kids...

The collage below shows all 250 albums...

I thought the pain was gone today until, around midday, I experienced a body-crumpling assault from inside the shoulder/upper arm which reminded me to take things easy...

Exercises continue and the sling was off most of the day apart from an early evening visit to Tesco with Anne for ingredients for (a) tonight’s joint effort at a tasty Pancetta Risotto and (b) tomorrow night’s proposed home made curry re a visit from Chris-with a Ch...

“Have I got News For You” and “Law & Order : Criminal Intent” was the extent of my TV viewing today – other than a short interview with Alice Cooper on some morning mind-numbing programme on ITV...

Oh yes...

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!
