Morning Friday morning... Various things have happened on my system over the last few days which are extremely annoying, frustrating and, of which, their cause is proving difficult to find. Hopeful of making my way through tho. First world problems, as they say. In the meantime, have a top day all!

#NP Listening to a band I can never understand people's liking for. Yesterday I found a list of LPs I had on home recorded cassettes in the mid 70's. One was listed as "Grateful Dead Live". I don't recall having had this and don't know which live LP it was. So I now have this. "Dark Star"'s not bad,

I've chosen The Parley of Instruments' collection of music by 17th Century composer, Mathew Locke, "The Broken Consort". These works, from the 1660's, are, as the American Record Guide said, "delicious"...
