'Yessongs' and a never completed list !!

Greetings !!

I hope you're all doing well, in your parts of the various Universes you live in ?! It's a Sunday, here in England.... it looks kind of manky, outside - not really raining & not really Sunny either !! Oh well...

As I type, My Wife & Dearest Friend - B - is upstairs, using her sewing machine.... every now & again, I hear the motor turn over. I think she is working on some kind of bag.... she was here, a short while ago, cutting around a pattern, that she marked onto some cloth. It all looks too complicated, for my old brain, at least !!

Now then - being a Sunday, I should be at Church... but, after what I can call a very dismal night, I decided to stay at home, for this week at least & try to get my head back together with the rest of my body !!

Sometimes, I can't get myself together & I just regret feeling like crap.... but, as B keeps telling me "you've been sick !!" sooooo - I have to accept my various limitations & take one day at a time !! Sooner or later, things will sort themselves out - just not today tho' !!

Today - as I type, that is... The Hobbit 'Battle Of The 5 Armies' is playing quietly, over on the TV. I must buy the official release, this coming week. I will also pick up the extended version - whenever that hits the shops - I'm guessing that won't be for quite a few months yet
 - oh well !!

As for the music of the moment & the main reason for switching the computer on & writing this ol' blog of mine today... well, that's 'Yessongs' by Yes. If you've not heard of it - it's an old 3 Lp set, that came out in 1973. It was, for "Prog-Rock" fans, one of those must have albums !! The tracks are:

  1) Opening - 'The Fire Bird Suite'
  2) Siberian Khatru
  3) Heart Of The Sunrise
  4) Perpetual Change
  5) And You & I
  6) Mood For A day
  7) Keyboard Solo
  8) Roundabout
  9) I've Seen All Good People
10) Long Distance Runaround
11) Close To The Edge
12) Yours Is No Disgrace
13) Starship Trooper

Ok - I missed out all of the various sub-titles.... plus, I'm playing the 2 Cd version - but, it's still a good listen !! I didn't actually plan to put it anywhere near the Cd players - but, I found it & decided "why not" and decided to give it a good play thru' !! Great stuff !!

Right - my plans for the rest of the day... none at all !!

I do intend to sort thru' a bundle of Cd's - I've even made a bit of space for them !! I guess I'll try & start with the latter "A" groups & work thru' from there onwards.

Luckily, a few years back, I started to list everything.... but, as with most things, over the last few years, my body gave up on me & the list never got anywhere near being complete !!

Plus, of course, I've added to the collection... sooooo - I'll have to start over I guess. Never mind, it will all come together in the end - I hope !!

For now, I will be on my ways... as always, I thank you for logging in & reading my words... until next time...

Bye Bye
