Worked during free time today (from 6:40) on a new wee project featuring one of my chums...

Much enjoyable music and many enjoyable memories brought back...

Drove out to my mum’s and, from there, on to Nephew Andy’s new home with fiancé Tori – his son Kerr was also there, as was Andy's mum, sister Sheila (not pictured)...

Caveats re the pics...

1. This is not the best ever pic of Tori (sorry Tori)...
2. They have just moved in and the decor is to the taste of the previous occupant...

Young love...

Father and son...

For regular reader, sister Pam, here's the latest of our Mum with her wee friend, Sheila's smelly but nice wee dog, Ben (other dog, Smudge, not pictured)...

A lovely meal featuring bang bang chicken and home made chocolate cake was enjoyed by all...

I made the mistake of forgetting about my painful post-op shoulder and, foolishly, attempted to lift the wee lad onto a chair, almost dropping him and causing myself some excruciating pain...

Owya!

My latest LP soundtracked part of the afternoon and was deemed by my mum to be “quite good background music”...

Great...

Andy was impressed though, so that’s the main thing and we will work soon, I hope, on some remixes and, perhaps, some new material and, possibly, some live appearances...

Back home to The Pie (much better than any dog!)...

...and the new wee project continued into the night and was listened to whilst, rather more quickly than usual, typing up the last four days...

Highlight of the Day : An old chum’s musical prowess...

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!
