The very essence of funk...

Playlist
Cloudland Blue Quartet - The Ten New Tracks
Grand Funk - E Pluribus Funk
Grand Funk - Thirty Years of Funk

The new track still sounded good this morning and fits in nicely at track three out of ten...

Inspired by last night's art series, I sought out (and, evidently, found) a "Warholisation" programme...

Met with the lovely Exec Producer for lunch...

Tasty...

In the evening, cycled to the gym then enjoyed some sustaining home made soup whilst we were entertained buy two "Coronation Streets" and the penultimate "Glee"...

Tonight's theme seemd to be "funk"...

This made me want to listen to some Grand Funk Railroad - about as far removed from funk music as you're likely to get...

Lights out, ears ringing...

Highlight of the day : Lunch with Annie...

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!
