That's four weeks today since my mate passed away and exactly three weeks since his funeral. And again thanks to everyone who has contributed the postings over the period....you've all said something that has helped make better sense of the world.
While I'm still getting used to things, there's no doubt that the relatively mundane routine of everyday life is returning to the way it was a while back. But there are nights when I find I can't sleep for worrying about the future, especially what it holds for my mate's immediate family. So the title of today's track is for me:-
mp3 : Ballboy - Where Do The Nights Of Sleep Go To When They Do Not Come To Me
For those not aware, Ballboy are a wonderful band from Edinburgh who were much championed by the late John Peel. They've been kicking around since 2000 and over the years have released four excellent studio LPs and around eight EPs/singles. Today's offering was released as a single in late 2002 and the CD single also featured these two tracks:-
mp3 : Ballboy - A Night At The Ballet
mp3 : Ballboy - Leave The Earth Behind And Take A Walk Into The Sunshine (live)
The single can also be found on the debut LP A Guide For The Daylight Hours, as can this track which is another that made me smile one day this past few weeks when it came up on random play:-
mp3 : Ballboy - Avant Garde Music
Happy Listening!!!
