Stourhead NT (Monday 29th July 2024)

I was due to meet up with my brother at the New Forest Wildlife Park, so here we are at Stourhead (it's complicated) on the hottest day of the year so far, fuelled by ice-cream and drinks, hot and cold. We encircled the Garden Lake counter-clockwise, so the obligatory Palladian bridge view was taken at the outset.

Lozarithm's Lozarhythm Of The Day:
John Mayall and the Bluesbreakers - I'm A Stranger (recorded Decca Studios, West Hampstead, 3/9 April 1968)
John Mayall (vcl, har, kbds, gtr - first solo) with Mick Taylor (gtr), Tony Reeves (bass), Jon Hiseman (dr) with Chris Mercer (ten or bar sax - second solo), Dick Heckstall-Smith (simultaneous ten and sop sax), Henry Lowther (cornet)
A CD copy of the album Bare Wires landed on the mat on this morning, replacing the gatefold vinyl album I'd bought in 1968 but that had long since vanished. The line-up had changed radically since his previous album, A Hard Road, and featured Mick Taylor (a soon-to-be Rolling Stone) replacing Peter Green, and with more jazz influenced musicians than before.
It was a short lived line-up as by August he was back in the studio without the Bluesbreakers but with Mick Taylor and a new rhythm section to record Blues From Laurel Canyon.
