Hi again everybody.... many greetings to you all !!
It's another Tuesday !! Yet another week has gone by - today is chocolate & TV magazine day... the day that, by tradition, over the last couple of years has kept my addled brain together. If it's chocolate & TV mag day - it has to be a Tuesday !! It all helps me remember things......
Oh well... moving along...
I'm home alone - for a while at least. B has gone down to the village, to attend one of the Dr's surgery meetings, that come along - about once a month. I'm not 100% sure what they talk about - but, everything seems to be put into the mix.... to try to help the surgery !!
One way that they could help, is by telling the Dr's to knock on the doors - before they go charging in to the treatment rooms !! In the last week, alone, I've been down there & had 2 of the Dr's just walk into the room.... it really pisses me off !!
Ok - I know it shouldn't bother me...... but, I'm sat there, with my shirt off with the nurse treating my wound - fixing new dressings to it - and suddenly a Dr comes thru' the door !! I really hate that !!
It's bad enough, having the bloody dressings changed, as it is.... with the pain & everything, without a Dr coming into the room & ignoring my privacy !! The nurse should lock the doors - but, sometimes, they forget.... nevermind !!
So - that's where B is, at the moment..... leaving me here, listening to some Gov't Mule & waiting for a repair man, to get out here & fix our washing machine - once again, it has broken down !! That makes it 5 times in less than 3 years !! Luckily, we have a repair insurance going, to cover breakdowns - sooooo, that covers the worst of it !!
Sooner - or later - they will just scrap the old thing & give us a replacement.... again, that's part of the insurance cover - I doubt if it will come to that...... it would be good, if it did - but.... I can't see it happening !!
Going back to music... I'm playing the official version, of the bands New Orleans concert, from May 3rd 2003. It came out as 'The Deepest End' 2 Cd + DVD set..... normally, I play the soundtrack of the DVD - it's longer & contains a slightly different set, but - the tracks, on the Cd's are:
CD 1
1) Bad Little Doggie
2) Game Face
3) Larger Than Life
4) Blindman In The Dark
5) Which Way Do We Run
6) Fool's Moon
7) Sco-Mule
8) Patchwork Quilt
9) Lay Of The Sunflower
10) John The Revelator
CD 2
1) Beautifully Broken
2) Time To Confess
3) Banks Of The Deep End
4) 32/20 Blues
5) Goin' Down
6) Slow Happy Boys
7) I Shall Return
8) Trying Not To Fall
9) Drivin' Rain
10) Soulshine
To be honest - I prefer the DVD s/t.... but, it's all good !! So - if you see this set, anywhere - go & buy a copy.... you will get just over 6 hours of music, for your money - that can't be bad, can it ?!
Just a while ago - before playing this Cd - I was listening to Jack White's 2014 album 'Lazaretto' - it's one of the many Cd's I've been & collected (in one way or another) over the last couple of weeks.... mostly since coming out of hospital.....
I still have a soft spot, for The White Stripes - but this new album is growing on me... bit by little bit. If you get chance, give it a listen..... it's all music & that can't be too bad, can it ?!
The tracks, on 'Lazaretto' are:
1) Three Woman
2) Lazaretto
3) Temporary Ground
4) Would You Fight For My Love ?
5) High Ball Stepper
6) Just One Drink
7) Alone In My Home
8) Entitlement
9) That Black Bat Licorice
10) I Think I Found The Culprit
11) Want & Able
As I say - if you get the chance... give it a listen !!
Ok - my plans, for this fine day... well, none at all really !! I have several things, that really & truly, I should be getting on with - but, I really don't feel that well enough, to even make a start - let alone finish the things, if I actually got around to starting them, in the first place !! I'm not sure if that makes any sense.... but, I kind of know what I mean !!
I want to pull the music tower out... the stack of various components, that make up the various bits I listen music thru' - (a) to rewire the speakers (b) to give everything a dust down (c) to remove the Pioneer deck (d) replace that deck, with the new TEAC one..... and lastly (e) wire in the very old speakers, that I've had for many, many, many Moons - to really give the room a new sound !!
Ok - it'll be the same... as the old sound - but, I hope..... and it's a kind of "leap in the dark" kind of hope.... that by adding the old speakers, the room will sound a little better !! Heck - if it's worse, I won't use the old speakers.... but..... I'll see how things go !!
Each of the old speakers have a 12 inch bass speaker + various other things - so, if nothing else.... I'll give the room a bit of a shake up, when I play the beginning of 'Dark Side Of The Moon' !! Always a favourite....... ho-hum....
Right - I must be on my ways.... the washing machine man has yet to get here - but, I want to get on with some other stuff, while I'm waiting for him...
So - as always - I thank you for reading my words.... until next time..
Bye Bye
