Better weather this morning, after yesterday's almost incessant rain...

Breakfast enjoyed, including a made in front of me omelette...

Free time this morning so a walk with Prog Rock Willie to El Corte Ingles...

Eventually we found the music department, which had been moved to the basement...

I picked up a few "bargains" at 2 Euros each...

Four Spanish CDs of which I had no knowledge, a Craig Armstrong soundtrack and a 3CD set by discomeister Eric Prydz...

A walk down to the front, where coffees and soft drinks were enjoyed...

...and a walk back along the front to the hotel...

...with its unused tennis courts...

In the room, I sampled the purchases via Youtube...

It appears I've bought a Spanish rap CD...

They all seem good though...

A walk back to the port in the afternoon...

...and some tapas and drinks enjoyed for a late lunch...

So late that it had started to get cold and the stragglers needed some warming up...

A chat with the EP - snow back home apparently...

Hmmm...

We could see Gibraltar in the distance...

Yet another walk back to the hotel for a change and out again and yet another walk back to the port for a dinner...

...followed by more drinks...

Prog Rock Willie and I headed home around 11 - here is the progmeister with a local cat...

Lights out with today's artwork, "2018-01-15"...

Highlight of the Day : Reasonably hot and sunny...

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!
