Up early and, soon...


...the sun was showing its intention to shine all day...



Funky soul sounds soundtracked the morning...

I stayed in most of the day, Anne enjoyed some time in the garden, while mine was taken up with the usual nonsense...

Perusing "Panorama" by Gerhard Richter...


...and deciding again to move some LPs - only those which I cannot yet enjoy digitally...


...which included listening to some and reconstituting them digitally...


This Gentle Giant was good...




...and, following reconstitution, has been moved again to the back room, where I also finally unpacked the small mixer I bought last August to assist with the then project of re-recording a full set of songs with the intention of playing them live...


...and listened to some tasty classical sounds through the massive for a house PA...



This disc of the originals of our covers set was also sampled...


There was a wedding on the TV which Anne enjoyed...

Then, we sat out in the garden, where these books were perused and dipped into...



...which led me to re-sample the excellent Passengers (Eno & U2) LP from 1995...

In the evening, a Chinese takeaway was taken away and enjoyed as was the latest two hour "Inspector Montalbano"...

A good day, despite a little too much wedding nonsense...

Today's artwork, "The New Mix"...


Highlight of the Day : Busy doing nothing...
