carnival of souls unsteady path

again today i left the house for an aimless wander, this time i headed west, ipod playing lakshmi shankar, who i'd assumed was L. shankar, the wonderful violinist of shakti, but actually is a fantastic female singer, sister-in-law to ravi, L. not related to the great sitar player at all...

i headed up mitford street where i'd met balthazara's younger look-a-like on friday night, no sightings today, turning left down kingsdown then crossing the holloway road i strayed as far as tuffnel park, the lakshmi album finished just before i caught sight of the boston arms, where me & spski have seen billy childish a couple of times... (in fact i see he's playing there on friday april 8th... must tell pbug)...

i also washed my floor today, joyful activity it was too... then downstairs waiting for it to dry spski & his friend had returned from margate (off-season) which reminded me that awhile ago i'd bought carnival of souls on DVD in a pound shop, film based around an abandoned funfair... so we watched it... eerie, and striking, a little slow, but fantastic none-the-less... reminded me that i'd made a tune out of some voacl samples from that film years ago.. must track that track down...
