Alphabetti spaghetti...

Playlist
Various - Last 12 Months on Shuffleplay
Heaven & Hell - The Devil You Know
OMD - History of Modern

Started the day by wiping a goodly number of albums from the "last 12 months" jukebox and adding a plethora of recent aquisitions...

With Meg the Black Cat in Xmas mood/mode...


...it was out into the Winter again...


...soundtracked by the 30GB's worth of music acquired in the last 12 months...

To listen to it all, at say four hours a day, would take me from January through to April next year...

Why do I take on this burden?

Ignoring this question, my Secret Santa present of a £10 HMV Voucher was spent on Eels' latest "Tomorrow Morning" which (upon listening to it tomorrow morning I will find) is a welcome relief from his last, extremely downbeat, outing...

I also found an album of which I wasn't aware - Heaven & Hell's "The Devil You Know" - this is of course the Ronnie James Dio fronted version of Black Sabbath in disguise...

This is "doesn't get much better than this" classic heavy metal - such a shame Mr D passed away in the summer...

So, how much does my beard grow in eleven hours? 
Yeah, not much really - unlike sister Pam's hair which is making a big comeback just a week after being shaved off...


In the evening, post (a) Heaven & Hell, (b) a catch up call to my buddy Count Brodski, (c) a newly-arrived-in-the post-inside-a-Brussell-Sprouts-themed-Xmas-card from Macclesfield Craig new OMD album, (d) "Coronation St" and (e) "Big Bang Theory", it was (f) off down to Tesco for some late night shopping re Xmas provisions.and some increasingly expensive diesel for the CB Mobile...

Back home and last night's season finale of "Law & Order : Criminal Intent" ended a reasonable day...

Highlight of the Day : Law, Order and some new Heavy Metal...
