Sixty years is not a long time...

Playlist
Harmonia - DeLuxe
Neu! - Neu! 75
Michael Rother - Sterntaler
Various - Cloudland Blue Eclectic Selection 2016 Vol 6

Happy 60th birthday today to sister Sheila...

OK that's not how she looks now but back around 2008/09 she was the subject of a makeover from sister Pam...

A day listening to the chosen pieces for this week's eclectic selection, once again, even more eclectic than the week before - all tracks come from London purchases or Michael Rother, Mozart and Beethoven re the concerts attended...

More nice shots on Crispycat Hill this morning...

I was out and about...

...and, at lunchtime, took a walk down to Stockbridge and back...

...picking this up at the Oxfam Shop for just 99 of your English New Pence...

A wee chum spotted on the way back...

Home in the gathering dark...

For an evening of more listening and podcast link recording...

Lights out...

Highlight of the Day : A nice walk...

Crispycat Latest Release

David Reilly AKA Cloudland Blue Quartet, created his first soundscape, "The Drone Effect" back in December 1977. 46 years later, he finally gave two live soundscape performances, in Edinburgh on 4 November 2023 and in Newcastle on 18 January 2024, playing the 40 minute piece available here on Bandcamp as "Live Suite 2023/24". On 30 August 2024 he premiered a new 40 minute suite for 2024/25 at Fopp in Edinburgh and this piece was performed again at the Switched On Electronic Music Festival in Whitby, Yorkshire on 9 November 2024. This album, "Live Suite 2024/25" was created specifically to be performed at these last two events and, like "Live Suite 2023/24", may well be performed again in the future. Free to Stream/Name Your Price to Download, the download bundle contains the studio mix of the live performance version of "Live Suite 2024/25"

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!
