Belt up...

Playlist

Various - Cloudland Blue Eclectic Selection 2017 Vol 29

The Flaming Lips - With a Little Help From My Fwends

Various - Lust For Life

Brandon Flowers - The Desired Effect

Today, compiling the week's podcast...

And recording but not yet editing the links...

The draft of the programme in the headphones as I took note of stuff on the way down the hill...

At lunchtime, to Fopp and four £3 items partaken of...

The Flaming Lips is, to be honest, pretty dreadful, the Flowers is great for fans of the Killers, like me - it is, of course, so easy for the lead singer of a band to sound like said band on a solo album and so tap into the ready made market - different for a bass guitarist perhaps...

The 3CDs of 10cc contain over 50 tracks, of which 34 are new to the collection - so that's justified...

The "Lust For Life" set contains much punk and new wave already owned but enough new to the CBQ music library gems to, again, justify less outlay than for a pint of lager...

Some leaves on the way down from the terminus this evening...

A new belt...

...demonstrates the difference between me and the Exec Producer...

Editing and recording the podcast this evening, plus ripping and listening to the new stuff...

Highlight of the Day : New music, new belt..

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!
