Started the day with the new piece from the proposed new trio...

Up just before six under grey skies...




Finished off the podcast and got it uploaded in time...


Then listening to some 12 inch singles...

David Bowie...


The Blue Nile...


Deutsch Amerikanische Freundschaft...


...and this rear 12 inch from Brian Eno...


I didn’t think it was as rare as it is because all the tracks on it are included in the CD box sets which
were issued a few years later...


However the tracks on this 12 inch EP are all a little longer than the tracks on the CDs in the box set, so it retains its rarity...


Also this morning, listening to the proposed new Cloudland Blue Quartet album, now entitled "Coldclear"...


I did not go out today...

Instead I stayed at home and decided to do some CD filing...

Here the various artists collection...


I moved all the CD-Rs in their plastic sleeves into boxes and started to fill the empty shelves created by this, with box sets and other more precariously housed releases, which I'd extricated from the various artists collection...


Soon there were CDs all over the room...


All of this was soundtracked by psychedelic rock...


German electronic music and indeed, British electronic music, from these two tasty compilations from a few years ago... 



Then, some prog rock on the Vertigo label from this nice little box set..


Late in the afternoon, a thing which had been ordered to try and clear our drains arrived...


As you can see the Exec Producer was sceptical...

It turns out she was right to be, as we could not get it to go around any of the corners...




Hopeless...

Baked potato for tea...


Some jazz from Chick Corea...


A look at today’s filing work...




Some reggae...


Some more progressive rock...



Some television...

And off to bed with the drain still blocked...
