Jazz fusion was the order of the post evening part of the day, thanks to Mr Ponty and his violin based noodlings...

A scorcher, eventually...

I've been doing a satisfactory amount of this, this week...

At home, some reasonably weird violin/viola based noodlings from the husband and wife team of the Zehetmair Quartet, Thomas and Ruth, who, early evening, post a blast of the recent Bowie album for the two of us, with Anne then out in the garden, took me through pieces by Ruth's brother, Rainer, Scelsi, Bartok, Holliger, Martinu, Nied and Skalottas along with a short piece by Peter Maxwell Davies - it was the searching on Amazon for the music of the last of these, which led me to purchase the disc...

As with most of this kind of stuff, you have to be in the right mood...

I was...

Later, "Spiral" season 4 continued to intrigue and entertain...

Then, the compilation of a new 2CD one-track-from-each-studio-LP collection of David Bowie...

I do like to compile...

Lights out...

Highlight of the Day : Noodling and compiling...

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!
