Right, that's enough, it's already Tuesday 3 January 2023 as I try to write this...

I was up late...

But I am able to refer to the notes I made...

So, working again on my "Top 20's" for 1959 - 2022...

Then, breakfast, then Anne out, to see her mum I think, then more Top 20 work...

An accidental pic was taken at some point but will it one day be an LP cover?

While Anne was out, my ordered a couple of days ago onesie arrived...

On Anne's return, she joined me in a onesie fest while we lunched...

...and enjoyed the first part of the Ghost of Canterville - which reminds me, 6 days later, we've forgotten to watch part two!

Finally my Top 20s were completed...

As you can see (or perhaps not) from my notes above, several of the entries on the old phone/MP3 player proved problematic and had to be sorted out once again...

I did some analysis...

88 artists with 5 or more LPs in the 1,280...

Of which, the top were/are...

Alice Cooper

David Bowie

Brian Eno

Yes

Francoise Hardy

Rheostatics, Rush, Sparks

King Crimson, The Church

Miles Davis, The Bad Plus, Yello

Tangerine Dream

Lou Reed, Marillion, Spock's Beard, The Tubes

Jackie McLean, Loscil, Pink Floyd, Uriah Heep

Laura Pausini, Laurie Anderson, Michael Rother, Neal Morse, Pet Shop Boys, The Beatles, The Cure

2Raumwohnung, Allan Holdsworth, Bob Dylan, Dar Williams, Fehlfarben, Genesis, Gentle Gant, Hawkwind, Mathilde Santing, Max Richter, New Order, Ornette Coleman, Taylor Swift

Art Blakey, Bryan Ferry, David Sylvan, Deutsch-Amerikanische Freundschaft, Jean-Michel Jarre, John Grant, Madredeus, Peter Gabriel, Roxy Music, Steve Harley, Suzanne Vega

So, those total 613 LPS and 613/1280 = 47.9% of albums

And they are by 53 artists and 53/88 = 60.2% of artists with more than 4

Back to my notes...

Baked potatoes for tea...

The, "Black List", "University Challenge" and "Vienna Blood" closed off the day...

Just as well I made the notes...

Which, of course since today, has fallen by he wayside

Onwards...

Highlight of the Day : Onesie arrival...

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!
