#DailyCDBox 51 Rubbra - Satie

Box a day, playing 1 CD. Enough boxes to last over a year

Aldo Ciccolini plays Satie. His renditions were the 1st I had of Satie, music of which, my own take is one of my top selling releases on Bandcamp

Used to use Gymnopedie No 1 as walk on music for performances

Martin Turner Setlist at KL 17, DΓΆbeln Get the Martin Turner Setlist of the concert at KL 17, DΓΆbeln, Germany on October 25, 2025 and other Martin Turner Setlists for free on setlist.fm!

Came out in 2015 so probably unlikely, however, I note that the title track was in his setlists in Germany in 2025 so you never know... It was the only one of 18 songs played that wasn't a Wishbone Ash song...

Quite possibly thee quintessential Heavy Metal album. Certainly, for me, Rainbow's best by the proverbial country mile. In fact, it knocks the rest of their discography into a Cocked Hat...

Named after track two, side two, of "Killer" by the Alice Cooper Group... I have two YYY LPs but not that one... Quite punky, from memory...

#DailyCDBox 50 Schrecker - Schubert

Wow - have kept this going for 50 days!

Box a day, playing 1 CD. Enough boxes to last over a year

2CD set of Schubert Impromptus, played by Maria Joao Pires on Deutsche Grammophon. Bought this on its release in 1997 and been a fave since. Lovely booklet too...

Morning Monday morning...

New month, 2nd day. Awake most of the night listening to music while enduring huge pain in my foot. Been up since 5:30 and it seems a bit better. Might just make a re-arranged band rehearsal this afternoon. Let's see...

Enjoy your Monday, music people...

Only ever been to Carlisle the once - Speed Awareness course after being caught on the M6 back in 2011... I quite liked Carlisle, the Exec Producer did not.
