Thursday and the soundtrack was mostly new stuff and previously owned and now re-owned stuff into the collection, much of which was planned to feature on this weekend's podcast...
I was up early...
Some random LPs of the day were also on the agenda...
The sky was good...
...and this was brought up to date...
...while said records waited...
WFH, lunch with "Superstore" then, in the afternoon (with WFH continuing), records were played...
This was bought on my long trip home from Munich in the Autumn of 1979...
Of the three Neu! records released during the band's lifetime, for me, this is certainly the best...
...reflecting as it does what was to come...
...from both La Dusseldorf and Michael Rother's solo records...
I went to compare it to the CD and found a signed ticket inside from when we saw Mr Rother play in Edinburgh in 2010...
Next up, some classic Yes...
Quite possibly their most "difficult" LP...
...with Patrick Moraz's keyboards and Steve Howe's most angular guitar playing of his career to the forefront...
Bought 2nd hand in 1977 a couple of weeks after I'd bought a brand new copy of "Going for the One" on it's release day...
Last of today's trilogy...
...the posthumous King Crimson live LP...
"U.S.A."...
For many years this was the only available artefact re the amazing music this version of the band played onstage
That all changed with "The Great Deceiver" 4CD box in the early 90s and loadsa stuff issued since then including the "Starless" and "Road to Red" box sets that sit on my shelves...
With "Death in Paradise" finished (and it now being next Tuesday as I write this) I'm sure we watched something else on TV, I just can't recall what...
Lights out...
Highlight of the Day : Playing some old records...
