Another big playlist today - enjoying harking back...

And some new stuff too...

Out with the EP this evening for some cheeky drinks - but keeping a welcome clear head...

Tasty Italian nosh from Quattro Zero - including best pizza ever (pt 342)...

For future reference, Pizza Diavola with Extra Onions...

Back home, ripping and listening to purchases made today at Fopp...

The latest by Agnes Obel, already two years old but, of which, until very recently, I was not aware...

Wonderful voice...

The latest by The Divine Comedy, also two years old...

Wonderful lyrics...

John Grant- a 2CD live set from four years ago - we will see him at the Festival next month...

...and a 2CD best of by his old group, The Czars - the cover advised extra tracks and extended versions but every track is the same as the original LPs, all of which I have...

Oh well...

Lastly, the latest 2CD Magnum Opus from Kamasi Washington (with perhaps a smidgen too many vocal tracks)...

...and which has a, literally, hidden third disc - only judicious use of scissors could free it from the packaging...



Ludicrous...

Elsewhere, a flight to Germany next year for Udo Lindenberg was booked...

An itinerary was also agreed - we will visit Darmstadt, Erfurt, Leipzig and Kassel...

A car, in which we carry this out, was also booked...

Today's artwork is "Extra Onions"...

Highlight of the Day : Keeping a clear head...
