2,002 : Revamping...

Playlist
Cloudland Blue Quartet – Splinterheart
Philip Glass – The Essential Philip Glass

The longest day of the year and a scorcher, of which no pics were taken…

It occurred to me today to change the current running order for the proposed new LP and so some time was spent on that…

If anything by CBQ could ever be termed “commercial”, then I now have the one of the least “commercial” CBQ tracks ever, “The Cage of Expectation”, complete with stretched, treated and distorted pianos which will no doubt cause some listeners to believe their equipment is on the blink, starting proceedings…

In HMV, new to-be-kept-in-reserve headphones were purchased following a going-tits-up scenario this morning with the current pair and the then only in reserve pair being called into duty…

A disc of “The Essential Philip Glass” was also procured for three of your British Pounds - and added to my Glass Collection...



In the evening a cycle to and from the gym in the heat and watching Spain toy like a cat with a mouse with the Hondurans but, in the end only managing to score two goals – unlike the Portuguese who put seven past the North Koreans…

Late doors, burned and ripped a version of the new running order…

I’m still thinking much of the lead vocal work needs to be re-recorded – the majority of the performances are first takes recorded whilst actually writing the lyrics…

It’s only on repeated listening that the required nuances present themselves but having to do it all over again is a daunting prospect…

Lights out…

Highlight of the Day : Revamping…

P.S. Should I keep these numbers on the posts?
