A chance meeting at lunch time today with Count Brodski - not seen for too long...

Out of a pouch on the front of his jacket, he produced this...


It seems in 1973, the LP "Genesis Live" was to have been a double album and a few test pressings were produced, including the full 25 minutes of "Supper's Ready"...

Nice...

Shocked to hear he had a heart attack back in November but the treatment was swift, a stent input while conscious, and he is back to "normal"...

Much chat about music projects etc and, indeed, it was like we'd last seen each other just yesterday...

As it always is with the count...

Love to Penny, love to Milano and we were on our way - tomorrow, I will mail him some Creek - we must get the new LP out!

At home this had arrived - good modern classical...


We did well on "University Challenge"...

The rest of the evening was spent splitting up the tracks from yesterday's rehearsal and e-mailing the new songs to the boys...

Highlight of the Day : Chance meeting...

I'm also shocked to hear about Alan, hope Brodski was upbeat and is much better now. New Creek toons would be exciting.

Luckily, Brodski seems fine and dandy after having had a stent applied to a constricted artery. To "cheer him up", I've been sending the 3 unreleased Creek LPs to him one track from each, each day - I'll send them to you too. The LPs are "Tranished" (2011), "Creek 2015" (i.e. no title as yet) (2015), "Reconstruction" (2019) (2015 recordings reworked completely by Mr Spark in 2017). It's all good...

Super dooper as they say.
