Optimism, catching, cross my heart...

Playlist
Cloudland Blue Quartet - New Stuff

The day, a veritable Swiss Cheese Day, was once again soundtracked by the new stuff...

The early evening was spent working on current tracks two and three from the proposed all-working-titles-abandoned-at-present LP, due 2011 - plenty time...

Listened to "The Killers at the Counter", which was reworked yesterday...

Then adding doo-wop backing vocals to and remixing "Hard Heart Hardened" and adding recently written on awakening from a dream lyrics to the previously instrumental track on "side one" which includes sonic input from Norman lamont (Norman gave the thumbs up today to the creation) and Peri Urban...

This is now going under the title "The Eternal Optimist"...

The current tracklist is:-

The Killers at the Counter
Hard Heart Hardened
The Eternal Optimist
Never or Now
Krebs Went to War
The Cage of Expectation
I Walk to the Beat of a Cold Broken Heart
Black Earth

Here's a wee illustration...



Work continues - there's a new collaboration in the offing with nephew Andy and more Peri Urban material to be utilised...

Other than that, it was "Glee!" and "Flashforward"...

Lights out...

Highlight of the day : Working on my music...
