Disappointing myself...

Playlist
Various - Weekly Playlist No 13
Cloudland Blue Quartet - 2014 Live Set Possibilities

A swift entry as not much done today...

Up around 5:30 and some fruitless work on soundscaping, utilising both the field recordings carried out at the beginning of the month and the Virtual ANS synthesiser programme...

Next, recording the weekly playlist - no chat, so a simple two hour run through...

A quick trip to the store for breakfast provisions...

Some housekeeping re systems...

Anne off out to finalise holiday plans with Lynn and Penny...

Looking at possible live set setlists...

Playing through them...

Disappointing myself...

Honing the selection...

Playing through them...

Disappointing myself again...

On Anne's return, Meg the Black Cat had disappeared...

While we waited her return, we enjoyed Bill Bailey's show "Qualmpeddler" on DVD...

Meg turned up two and half hours later having been who knows where...

Not strange for a cat but she hardly ever ventures outside these days, even with a 24/7 open catflap scenario...

Vegetable curry for tea...

Some tivo'd stuff, "Person of Interest" has returned, "Brooklyn Nine Nine" and the film "Turks and Caicos", followed by live and excellent "Stewart Lee's Comedy Vehicle"...

Managed around half of "Match of the Day" before hitting the sack...

Highlight of the Day : The playing of some songs, not the playing of others...

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!
