The Old Forge (Sunday 15th January 2017)
It was another indoor day, thanks to the inclement weather and early sunsets, so just the day for an update of my occasional kitchen wall dresser series, especially as there have been a few changes since its last appearance over a year ago.
It would appear that I quite like to know the time. As well as the five timepieces on view (including the one on the receiver under the dresser), there are another six in the kitchen alone. There's another Tardis on the windowsill too (it's bigger on the inside).

Lozarhythm of the Day:
Rolling Stones - Con Le Mie Lacrime (As Tears Go By) (recorded 15 March 1966, London)
I've just finished working through the Mono box set of Rolling Stones albums up to 1969, and one new disc devoted to stray mono singles, B-sides and odds and ends. Nearly all the tracks were variants that I had in stereo or alternative mixes in one form or another but this was one that I didn't have at all.
Mick and Keith had written this for Marianne Faithfull in 1964 at the behest of Andrew Oldham, who also wrote the lyric and was her manager. The Stones' own version, with the Mike Leander Orchestra, was recorded the following year and was an American single taken from the US album December's Children, and on the B-side of 19th Nervous Breakdown in the UK. This Italian language version was a new recording made the following year especially for an Italian single, with a lyric translation by Dante Panzuti and Mike Leander adding his own harpsichord work to the orchestral backing (Heart Of Stone was on the other side, but in English).
