Cracking the sky...

Playlist
Grachan Moncur III – Evolution
Kenny Dorham – Whistle Stop
Depeche Mode – Live in Glasgow 2009
Mastodon – Crack the Skye

Haircut first thing...

To HMV at lunchtime and secured Mastodon’s latest offering – purely on the basis of rave reviews – I had not heard their music...

In the evening, yet another night out, this time regarding the departure to pastures new of young chum Sorcha...

Obviously the pic above was taken at the end of the evening...

Drinks with Michelle, Martin, Stacey, Gavin, Bernie, Tracey, Sorcha, Christine, Caroline & the Exec Producer, including almost an entire bottle of red wine for your correspondent as he acted as Youtube DJ for the evening...

Off, with the last six of those listed above, to chum Spike’s new Indian Restaurant, “Club India” on Lothian Road for a private dinner, prior to it opening officially next week...

The surroundings were very conducive to a good night - a spacious, modern look – and the food was very tasty indeed – all chosen from a curtailed menu of course...

The drinks continued to flow until late on, when the Exec Producer and I ended the night in the Shakespeare Bar with Tracey and Sorcha, ensuring taxis were secured for both before heading home through the snow...

Highlight of the Day : Finally an Indian at Spike’s place...

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!
