Old and, indeed, new...

Playlist

Dover Quartet - Haydn Bartok Zemlinsky Edinburgh Queens Hall 2018-08-06
Roedelius - Selbstportrait I
Roedelius - Selbstportrait II
Mark Wingfield, Markus Reuter, Asaf Sirkis, Yaron Stavi - The Stone House

This evening, I had the opportunity to go along to see Irish Post Rock band, And So I Watch You From Afar...

However, I eschewed this in favour of some new and old music at home, tonight being at last able to facilitate a digital reboot of these two excellent early Roedelius titles, originally acquired from Pick Up in Kassel in 1980 and 1981...

...along with a considerable number of other Roedeius titles still or previously owned on vinyl...

Also some excellent improvised music by jazz guitarist Mark Wingfield and his extremely talented ensemble...

And I "taped" Monday's string quartets from the BBC iPlayer for posterity...

And there was "Holby City" too...

So, it's all good...

Today's artwork, "Roedelius I & II"...

Highlight of the Day : New and old music...

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!
