It seems I created (or attempted to create) a single disc version of the proposed new CBQ album (including a couple of pieces with drums) at some point and I listened back today...

To be honest, I don't even recall having done it but it's another idea to stir into the pot of procrastination...

Into town again, soundtracked by my "Top 50 of 2015" on shuffleplay...

A walk to Fopp, resulted in a stumble across a 4CD set of rare slices of funk for just three of your English pounds...

What was a man to do...

Home in the gathering gloom...


...purchase in hand...



However, it was almost midnight before I started to sample its content...

With Anne out at Hearts v Dundee Utd (3-2 win after going 1-0 down in the 2nd minute, ex Queens man Gavin Reilly netting the initial equaliser), I recorded four of the five hour long podcasts re my Top 50 listing, with the fifth to follow tomorrow...

So, here they are...

50-41...



40-31...



30-21...



20-11...



New kind of prog discoveries Umphrey's McGhee (via Twitter) also entertained and I took a wee listen back to my Eno covers for this first time since the hospital stay...

Then, finally, some funky funk around midnight as the sack was hit...

Highlight of the Day : Rounding up the year in music...
