Against the grain...

Playlist
Depeche Mode - Remixes 81-04
Lee Morgan - Various LPs on Shuffleplay
Freddie Hubbard - Various LPs on Shuffleplay
Art Blakey - Various LPs on Shuffleplay
John McLaughlin - Various LPs on Shuffleplay
Genesis - Mail on Sunday Promo
Dead Eyes Opened - Myspace Tracks
Colin Edwin - Third Vessel

Two new CDs arrived in the mail over the last two days, the Depeche Mode and Genesis CDs mentioned last week...



The Depeche Mode disc contains some cracking remixes, particularly "Enjoy the Silence" and "Never Let Me down Again", while the Genesis promo features six live tracks from their last tour, two rare "single edits" and three remixed classics...

Each disc cost just £1.99...

Fair play...

This evening, post Anne's delicious home made chili, I forewent what seems to have been quite an exciting football match between Aston Villa and Blackburn Rovers, to write this, to view some videos on Youtube and to listen to the Genesis disc...

Other than that, enjoyed a live performance today by, it appears, one of Youtube's favourite contrarian fund managers, Hugh Hendry - an entertaining man...

..and sang a few songs..

...and listened to the music of the erstwhile drummer from late 80's cohorts Call Me Clive, Mr Spooky Green and his splendid band, Dead Eyes Opened...

Tasty...

Lights out...

No, not lights out - I'd forgotten having received Porcupine Tree bassist Colin Edwin's album "Third Vessel" today from Prog Rock Willie and so finished the day with a spin of said tasty morsel...

Then lights out...

Highlight of the Day : Annie's home made chili...
