Started today with a couple of quick re-edits of yesterday's rehearsals, creating takes of a couple of songs which didn't actually happen, if you see what I mean...

Then, listening back...

Then, once again, listening back too, to the mock up of the proposed new CBQ song LP...

And, to offset all the coming pics of CDs, here's an accidental pic, treated...

Mouse and scissors...

A podcast cover, no doubt...


Along to Dalry at lunchtime and, this week, my haul came at a cost of under £8 at the BHF at that end of town...

This, which starts of ropily, due to the age of the recordings (1927 at outset!) but is soon very good indeed - as it makes its way across the decades...


Other than a CD-R burn of a best of, this looks now to be my only Joan Armatrading holding...

Featuring Chris Spedding on guitar, although of its time (1980), it too is rather good...


This was a find for 99 of your English new pence...

If you're in the mood for long tracks of Indian (or possibly, Afghan) music, called Taals then this meets your requirements...


Next, a punk classic from 1978...

The production makes it sound like punk but, with close listening, you can tell that a lot of work (and overdubbing) has gone into making it sound so simple...


Two classics (1969/1970) from someone who is not my fave ever "superstar", recorded while still the lead singer in the Jeff Beck Group and the second of which is, de facto, a Faces LP re the line up...


The one that caused the biggest stir on the Twitter timeline is this, The Doors' Ray Manzarek's second of three solo efforts (1983) - It’s certainly a strange one...

Orff’s Carmiba Burana but with a quasi rock band, accompanying the usual choral voices....

Produced by Philip Glass...

Cheesy in places - top notch in others...

And an excellent, Bosch based cover...


And this, currently only one copy available on Amazon, going for almost £60...

"£1.99?, thank you very much BHF"...

My £7.95 outlay would have necessitated over £165 being handed to Amazon - that's, of course, if I'd actually gone out looking to buy all of these...

It is, as you might expect, a reggaefied delight for people who like reggae and, I imagine, not, for those who don't...


Then, back home, this had arrived, a 3CD set put together in 1997 for Mr Glass's 60th birthday - and which contains much music not previously owned but now being enjoyed...


...and a tasty tea of salmon fillet, free chips, peas and mangetouts...

No musicking tonight and, other than "University Challenge" (3rd with 95 points), no TV - due to the amount of ripping and a-listening to be done...

Which is fine...

Highlight of the Day : A good haul...
