Ringleader perhaps...

Spent a few hours today recording five podcasts of my "tracks of the week" for 2015...

Here's the whole list if you're interested...

Five hours of fun - the Cloudland Blue Tracks of the Year podcasts 1-5 are here...

Midway through this, Anne advised breakfast was to come from this book - received from Keith and Maureen...

Accordingly, I was sent to Tesco for bacon and crème fraiche...

Back home, the Crispycat Masterchef got to it...

I was in charge of coffee - not much I could to ruin that...

Yum...

Meanwhile these were three of eight magpies gamboling around on the neighbours' roof...

The ringleader perhaps...

Anne's attendance of Hearts v Celtic at Tynecastle (2-2 draw with Hearts coming from behind in injury time of each half), allowed the podcast creation to continue...

I also recreated more albums I used to own (Cluster, The Revolutionaries and Udo Lindenberg) and, not content with that, compiled a further three disc set of Udo Lindenberg with one track from each of his 35 (count 'em) studio albums released between 1971 and 2008...

This is how etc...

In the evening, two episodes of "Dickensian" - a bit like Eastenders in costume to be honest, kind of entertained...

A trip to London panned and booked within around an hour - we will see a hero of so called Krautrock and a personal favourite of ours...

Good to hear that nephew Ali made it home ok last night...

Lights out...

Highlight of the Day : Musicking, indirectly...

Crispycat Latest Release

Between 1980 and 1995, Sombre Reptiles released 35 LPs. At present, all of these albums are deleted. "Songs of the Sombre Reptiles 1980-1995" is an 81 Track Virtual 6CD/10LP Box Set covering this pre-Cloudland Blue Quartet period. The versions of the songs included in the Box Set are taken from eight sources, recorded between 1993 and 1996: The three long deleted volumes of "Songs of the Sombre Reptiles", originally released on cassette in 1993 and 1994 via Edinburgh Record Shop, Reptile Records - all but 3 of the 57 tracks from these three records are included; Further album tracks from the final four Sombre Reptiles records, "Galleryshard (1993), "Kernelcrux" (1994), "Bitter Sweet Covers" (1995) and "Starcrossfix" (1995); Previously unreleased re-recordings from 1996, just before Sombre Reptiles became Cloudland Blue Quartet.

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!
