Tweaking and honing....

Playlist
Cloudland Blue Quartet – 2011 Album
Creek – Tarnished
Paul Oakenfield – Perfecto Fluoro
Halloween, Alaska – Champagne Downtown

Up unfeasibly early again and new up a list of work to be done on each of the ten new tracks for the proposed LP...



Then, worked initially on those parts that could be done “silently” – it was unfeasibly early...

Once Anne had surfaced, I was able to add further singing and guitaring to the songs...

By around 10, I was satisfied and moved on to putting together a “new” Creek album using the pieces worked on last October and November and those recorded in 2005 but never released...

By 11:15 and the arrival of fellow Creeker Stuart Cobley, I had a tasty wee seven track album to premier to him and the Exec Producer in the living room as we enjoyed bacon rolls and lashings of coffee...

But before the camera had been fired up...

With Stuart off to his nephew’s birthday party, some further CBQ remixing was undertaken before we headed to Anne’s mum’s for tea...

Where nephew Craig was sporting a Johnny Depp look – including moustache for Movember...



...and Kitty had a new Children in Need bear...



Nephew Olly took control of the camera and snapped a self portrait with Uncle...



..while Kitty wanted one of me sleeping with her new bear...



...and one of her likewise...



..before both children became a little less well behaved...



Back home to TV and bed - a long but productive day...

Highlight of the Day : Diverting myself with my music...
