No movement on the Danny Baker front. No word about the 'technical difficulties' that beset the Baker & Kelly' 'cast, and I'm so far out of the loop on the ADBS that I'm rapidly losing interest. FWIW, messages on the Treehouse and Cook'd and Bomb'd (now registered users only) suggest that things are improving, service-wise.
Still he read my e-mail out yesterday on the BBC London show...
Some recent downloads and purchases today to alleviate the boredom:
Winter (Fanfare) (excerpt) - The Enid
Return To Patagonia - Lemon Jelly
O Little One Sweet - Trad. (arr Bach), from a recent freebie CD with the Classic FM mag (my wife's)
The Demon King The Enid
Thinkin' One Thing & Doin' Another - Miles Davis, from On The Corner
Leo - John Coltrane, from Interstellar Space
Just George - Part 4 - Giles, Giles & Fripp
The Reaping - Coheed & Cambria, from their latest album.
I am big fan of C&C, after being introduced to their CDs by a former colleague 18 months ago. This latest album, 'Good Apollo, I'm Burning Star IV, Volume Two: No World for Tomorrow', is excellent, although heavier than recent ones, I think. There's certainly a lot more singing and fewer lengthy instrumental passages. Still very very good. In particular, the 'End Complete' suite is fabulous, following similar suites in previous albums (especially The Willing Well)
The End Complete I - The Fall of House Atlantic
II - Radio Bye Bye
III - The End Complete
IV - The Road and the Damned
V - On The Brink
T - 3; M - 3.5; D - 2, particularly maddening was the arse who settled down in the seat next to me and then expanded to try to take over the arm-rest. I'm not a small man, and a sideways look made him stop, but what the hell did he think he was doing?
