The Bad Plus - Discography
Cloudland Blue Quartet - Starlightnight Options
Genesis - Platimnum Collection
Today, once again, the problem with my achilles raised its head, or rather, foot - and so, I could not walk...
Confined to the house, I honed the The Bad Plus collection for brother in law Keith...
And I listened to all the material gathered for possible inclusion in "Starlightnight" versions...
Not sure...
In the evening, football - France finally overcoming Ukraine to win 2-0 and England winning 3-2 against Sweden...
After a victory like this, the media and pundits will no doubt up the ante re what a great team and performance this is/was...
Cracking, unstoppable header by Carroll to put England 1-0 up at half time...
But, worryingly, re their slim chances going forward, England's defensive shortcomings were easily exposed twice in ten minutes early in the second half, firstly for Sweden's equaliser and then, a second time, to put them into a well deserved lead, considering they were outplaying the English in every department despite the wide gap in world rankings...
For those now singing England's praises, a listen back to what was being said about them in in the five minutes between the Swedes' second goal and Theo Walcott's well placed volley for the equaliser, might instill a touch of reality and, indeed, humility to the proceedings...
But "at the end of the day", it's the department of finishing which wins out - and Wellbeck's winner was a six yard flick worthy of your correspondent in his heyday...
Yep, it's goals that count so, home you go Sweden, no doubt "sick as a parrot"...
Highlight of the Day : Sweden's second goal...
