Back to the BHF at lunchtime and it was only as I stepped through the door that I remembered about this...

Along to Dalry for a further trawl but no enticing ensued...

Home under blue skies in the hot heat...

Large queues for buses and so, I walked to Haymarket...

...past the cathedral...

In all, over an hour to make a journey I could do in just 10 minutes by car...

Down Crispycat Hill to the HQ...

...to find these little beauties waiting behind the door...

"That's not music" opined the EP later on...

A six CD set of contemporary Austrian music - winners of a prize set up by an Austrian Bank...

Banks can sometimes do good...

Before listening, watched two episodes of "Wasted" - neither as good as the first in the series...

Later on "Man Down" came a to a satisfactory end, setting up for a new series - which is good...

Other tuneless classical stuff listened to too later on...

It's all good...

Apart from the EP's lack of predilection for my musical tastes...

So, subjectively good, rather than good...

Highlight of the Day : More weird music...

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!
