Out into the cold morning, soundtracked for most of the day by Mr Ornette Coleman and his faaaar out jazz, maaan...

Last minute Xmas shopping was continued from last night's unmentioned session...

This of course included a walk along a festive looking Rose St to Fopp for a further couple of purchases, having checked first with the CD list to ensure no doublers were obtained...

Post an excellent tea from the Exec Producer, Mr Brad Mehldau delighted in the Cloudland Blue Mobile as we drove to Loanhead to visit mum and sister Pam - now without clips holding her wound together...

A good visit, with Pam rested well and in high spirits - her first time seeing Anne since this episode began...

In the pic below she has not inherited my mum's bent-overness, she was merely ensuring her worked-upon head made it into the frame...

Back home to a G&T nightcap and some further ripping of recent acquisitions - including a present today from Chris-with-a-Ch of a 2CD set of Depeche Mode remixes - tasty...

Lights out...

Highlight of the Day : A family visit...

Cloudland Blue Quartet said...: Tool - good band and, if you like them you could do worse than checking out The Beyond - a trio from Yorkshire who were signed to Harvest in the early nineties - Tool sound just like 'em

Crispycat Latest Release

"I know I produce an awful lot of music, which can make it hard to keep up. But, at the end of each year since 2021, I've produced a tasty compilation ("The Originals") featuring one track from each release. So, every year, if you're only going to buy one CBQ album, make it that one!" "Twentytwentyfour: The Originals" is a 130 minute selection of tracks from the fifteen 2024 releases by Cloudland Blue Quartet. The collection is issued in anticipation of (and includes a track from) the fifteenth and final record of the year, "Twentytwentyfour", a multi disc compilation of rare and previously unreleased recordings made by CBQ throughout 2024, which is due on 31 December.

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!
