Third day of 2021...

What day is it?

Ah, yes, Sunday...

Up reasonably early..


Finished off the podcast and loaded it up - first of 2021..

Cheers...


Waited for Anne to rise - listening to some of my own very early stuff - the German Box Set project is back on - looks like I will have 4 LPs, all told, in a big box exploring UK Cassette Culture from the late seventies and early eighties...

The producer is working on obtaining the music and rights etcetera from the various other proposed artists...

Then, to downloading albums to fill in the spaces in the classical piece a day playlist I'm building re the book received from Keith and Maureen at Xmas...

Once Anne was up, out into the cold to do some shopping...



Done...

Back home, Mr Squirrel (or possibly Mrs Squirrel) visited...




This was today's random LP of the day - from 1973 - not one of FH's best but it has its moments...

I didn't play it today though - will catch up tomorrow...





In the afternoon, out to see my mum - doing ok all things considered as they say....

Her ongoing deafness is annoying - I imagine a lot more so for her - but her hearing aids are being "seen to" on Tuesday...

Back home and not much of any import this evening...

More classical compiling...

Xmas nearly over...

Wait, we watched the documentary on Max Richter's "Sleep"...

I do like the simplistic and tuneful and sad music of Mr Richter but I think I got too much of an insight here - and his wife is sickeningly gushing about him...

Well done though, well done...

And, as I say, I really love his music...

Highlight of the Day : Downloading new to me classical stuff...
