This fruit will be gone by the weekend - I am loving oranges right now...
Meg the Black Cat is looking good too these days...
The sun and heat continued unabated...
In Fopp today, Be Bop Deluxe partaken of - the only one of their studio albums I didn't have...
Although it turned out, on attempting to rip it, that I did indeed already have it - as an illegal burn, picked up who knows when back in the mists of time...
I didn't stop there though, joining the fray were Leonard Cohen - a surprisingly good late 80's album from which I once owned a single - Miles Davis - studio recordings of his John Coltrane including Sextet from 1958, originally issued exclusively in Japan - and just one more Pat Metheny - an amazing solo album - amazing in that he only plays guitar, everything else is played in the same way a player-piano once was...
Painstaking but rewarding......
Home including a walk in the sun to Haymarket...
Upon arrival home, a couple of parcels awaited me...
They included two CDs not ordered, the Haydn and the Caplet...
Enquiries opened as to (a) what has become of what I actually ordered and (b) what to do with the unordered music...
On telly, another fascinating "Horizon" from Michael Mosley, this time on how to be more happy and less pessimistic...
He proved that by always choosing a smiling face rather than an angry one from a group of faces on a screen and by meditating for 10-20 minutes a day, he was able to reduce the negative activity in his brain, making him measurably happier after just seven weeks...
Top man...
