Humble Pie...pretty good !!

Greetings !!

It's another Wednesday, here in Old England.... and I'm in desperate need of a computer keyboard !! Last night, I was fussing around my table here & a pile of stuff slid (from a fair height) onto the board & smashed the back "foot".... the result being that I now have a wonky way of typing, to make up for it !! Not good really....

Anyhoo - that was last night... today, I'm sat here on my own - no, sorry... I'm not alone, as I have the kitten, Archie here with me, to keep me company !! Bless him - you would think he had had a hard night, the way he is sleeping !! As far as I know, he spent most of it, asleep on our bed !!

Nevermind... I'm here typing these words & that's about it really. B has gone into town - to pay some bills & pick up some "foody" types of things. ME is working an early today - which means, she should be home mid to late afternoon..... and J is still over in Wales, doing the Uni course. It's his birthday, tomorrow - so we'll no doubt give him a 'phone call !!


As for the music - well, I'm playing Humble Pie's 'Hot & Nasty - Rockin' The Winterland'. It was recorded back on May 6th 1973. The tracks are:

  1) Up Your Sleeves
  2) 4-Day Creep
  3) C'mon Everybody
  4) Honky Tonk Woman
  5) Stone Cold Fever
  6) I Believe To My Soul
  7) Thirty Days In The Hole
  8) (I'm A) Road Runner
  9) Hallelujah (I Love Her So)
10) I Don't Need No Doctor
11) Hot 'n' Nasty

The Cd came yesterday and this is my first chance to give it a good play thru'...... so far, so good. But (there is always one) I'm not that taken on Steve Marriott's vocals. He was a great rock singer, with a very good soulful voice !! He tends to over do it, just a little too much for me, on this recording. Oh well - we pays your money & you take your chances on what you get !!

At some point, in the next week or two, I'll have the Pie's 4 Cd set - from which, the 'Performance - Rocking The Fillmore' came from !! I'm looking forward to that !! Heck - a 4 Cd collection, recorded back in the early 70's - what is there not to look forward to & like !!

I'm being spoilt (again) with loads of music at the moment !! Great stuff....

Back to this morning... it was dressings time again !! Bummer.... !! If all goes well - starting next week - I will be only going, down to the surgery, twice a week... instead of 3 times !! That will be so good !! Instead of having myself pulled & pushed around, as the plasters come off.... well.... you get the picture !! I will be really glad, when this is all over & done with !!

Right, I was going to write about an album... one that has had an effect on my life, but - to be honest - I just want to get back to my warm bed & have a sleep.... so, I'll skip that bit, for today !!

So - with that in mind..... I thank you, as always, for logging in.... until next time...

Bye Bye
