Playlist
Up late on my birthday...
Huge playlist today re music I bought when I was 17, as opposed to 67 - plus the podcast...
Cards awaited...
...and were soon revealed along with cash, Weissbier and chocolate - a good start to the birthday...
...which continued as we drove over to Newhaven and The Haven...
...for a birthday breakfast....
...in good surroundings...
Lovely coffees...
...eggy bread (aka French Toast), with bacon and maple syrup for me...
...eggs on smashed avocado and sourdough toast for the lady....
...and out - I do love this old flour mill...
Along to Ocean Terminal and into HMV in the hope of maybe finding a birthday treat but, to no avail...
I have this already...
And so, home...
TV enjoyed, the end of "The Murder Mile" - ultimately, yes, enjoyable, but, a little disappointing...
An idea that the band ought to distribute our canon to the crowd at gigs and ask for requests, to engage them more...
Reasonable...
This guy puts out laminated sheets...
Anyway, CD Box No 124, Kieren Hebden & Steve Reid to Andrew Hill...
Chose this live set by Joe Henderson, recorded in 1970...
...at the legendary Lighthouse in California...
A good concert season to have been at, had I had the chance...
...although I was only 11 at the time and had little interest in music and, most likely, none in funky jazz...
Anne had left at 4:30 for tonight's crunch game at Tynecastle, Hearts v Scotland's Newest Club...
Losing 1-0 at half time, the JTs came roaring back in the second half to go 2-1 up and hold on re a few hairy moments to go 7 points clear of tonight's opponents and 3 ahead of Celtic, with 3 games to go...
People are starting to believe they might just win the league...
I was doing stuff at the computer as I watched the minutes tick away, including 7 of injury time...
I'm surprised I didn't hear the noise of the crowd at full time, in my room...
Podcast done and dusted and uploaded - this week, in honour of the birthday, featuring 10 singles from 4th of May charts from 1970-79 and 10 albums from 4th of May charts from 1970-79...
Hence, rather a bit longer than usual but who cares?
On Anne's return, another cake, this time, on the correct day...
...a couple of "The Black List" and, then, the highlights of the match, watched with much glee...
Full disclosure, I was a long time supporter of Glasgow Rangers but moved to Queen of the South in the 90's and gave up on GR completely when their cheating was uncovered in 2010-12, causing them to go down the pan - their supporters and the media maintain the current club is the same club but it is not...
This ongoing denial of reality just makes me hate them more...
These days, I support Celtic in those Glasgow derbies - unthought of back in the day - and despise the new team with a vengeance, so, today was a very good day and that was quite the birthday present from Hearts...
Bed at midnight...
Highlight of the Day: It was my birthday but, also, Hearts beating Scotland's Newest Club...
