Elvis at breakfast time...

Heading towards winter...

A very complimentary piece of correspondence re the new album arrived in the inbox last night, prompting me to give it another listen this morning in the light of independent insights...

On the way down the road, spotted the world's laziest paper delivery person...

...not the young boy heading for school - no, in the car in front of him, is a lady who drives a few yards, stops, gets out, puts a paper through a letter box, gets into the car, drives another five yards and repeats the process...

Meanwhile, uptown, the Cathedral was looking good...

The autumnal tree is now completely bare...

Thunderbird Three at the end of the street...

Two miles walked at lunchtime - guess where to - and almost three miles on the way home...

...tonight, walking all the way out to the zoo - a new record - soundtracked by Eno and Grand Funk...

I like this pic...

The beast was about its business...

Back home, updates to this, tasty sea bass, not great "DCI Banks" (it'd be better without DCI Banks, in fact) and two songs on "Children in Need" marked the return of erstwhile faves, Girls Aloud...

Alas their new material seems somewhat lacking...

Brian Eno was good - he wasn't on the telly though, just on my own personal radio station, Radio Dave...

Late on, the second of a new comedy on BBC Three, "Some Girls", was much enjoyed...

Highlight of the Day : Mega-walking...

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!
