She will probably be alright with us...

Cloudland Blue Quartet & Johnny Weizen - Run Through 2017-02-11

A day, mostly, of music...

This morning, refamiliarising myself with the Capital Models (barely that now really) covers set, putting into the new running order I put together last week and txt'd to the others...

Out with Keith to Johnny's house for 1:30, Stu was already there...

An enjoyable three and a half hour session, during which, more work than usual was done with regard to getting things that little bit more right...

All 22 songs recorded successfully for future reference...

The beast was about its business...

Home and a visit in the early evening from Abbie and Blair with their lovely wee cat, Mia, who will stay with us for a week from next Saturday night...

She was visiting to ensure she'd probably be alright with us...

She will probably be alright with us...

At eight or so, out and to The Listening Room for the first time in ages, to see Impossible Songs perform...

Prior to that though, around five others offered up a couple of songs each...

My own were "Underground Like Doug McLure", written last year and receiving its debut performance; and "Everything Will Be Alright pt 1" from my last song-based LP, "Starlightnight", from 2012...

A nice performance from the Impossibles, first time I've seen them play a full set for a long time - and quite a few songs from the very old days - back when I first got to know them in 2004/5 at Out of the Bedroom...

We need to get some dates in the calendar for a meet up...

Today's artwork "Abbie and Mia"...

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!
