Novembering And Remembering


Shorter days and longer nights...




Somewhere on The Dead River







Blondie - No Exit 
2025 reissue of 1999 album on clear vinyl








A co-worker made this little seating vignette
at the back of the art department office closet
and it's a nice little reflection spot.


Rest In Peace Dave Bell Of Soft Cell (1959 - 2025)



The Springsteen movie was pretty good.
Jeremy Allen White was better than the screenplay.















I replaced my original copy of Prince's 1999
album with a fresh copy... vintage and in great shape. 


Can you believe I found an 8 track cartridge 
of Waking Up With The House On Fire by Culture Club
sealed in its original box? Yes, they were still manufacturing
8 track tapes in 1984. I do remember seeing them in stores.



My copy of The Absence by Budgie (aka Peter Clarke)
arrived with a signed book plate. It's quite a wild ride.
No spoilers, but prepare yourselves to see the dynamic
between Siouxsie and Budgie in a whole new way. 








Before the leaves leave. Happy to be here. 









Misfire... and it stays. 


When it gets colder, I'm not outside as much.
However, when I am outside, it's interesting 
to see how things look and feel. Many other creative 
things happening behind the scenes. More about that 
another time. For now, as always, I wish everyone well. 

Stay illuminated. XO - CDM
