Remake, remodel...

Playlist
Cannonball Adderley – Mercy, Mercy, Mercy
Planet X – Quantum
Miles Davis - Siesta
The Pineapple Thief – Someone Here is Missing

Worked this evening on the backing tracks for the proposed set – eight of the songs from “Splinterheart”, with five of them re-worked from the versions on the LP...



Then spent some time running through the set – firstly with the electric, then just singing along, then singing along while playing the acoustic...

The third option was best...

Meanwhile Annie was listening to the CIS Cup, from which both Hearts and Queens were dumped out...

Hearts lost 4-3 away to First Division Falkirk - Hearts were reduced to ten men but had come back from two down to lead 3-2, only to concede a third almost immediately and then lose with the last header of the game in 94 minutes...

Bobby and Ollie were in the crowd...

Queens lost 3-0 away to Premier League St Johnstone in Perth, having held out for almost 70 minutes before conceding a penalty and promptly going to pieces...

The day was rounded off with a new acquisition courtesy of Prog Rock Willie – The Pineapple Thief – not really prog – more interesting rock in a kind of mid-period Radiohead stylee...

Nice...

Highlight of the Day : Progressing with the proposed live set...
