Playlist today was based on albums accrued since mid-October...
This evening I went through my recently rediscovered diaries for the years 1974 to 1977 (I have from 1974 to 1983 although I appear to have mislaid 1979, or am keeping it in a different place from all of the others discovered in a box in the music room)...
In those days, I recorded nothing much other than what records I bought (and sold) and so, I commenced a list of LPs bought from 1974-1983...
It appears from these records of a young man, that I bought 262 albums in the period concerned (and a great deal more singles)...
Of those titles recorded, 145 are present in my current collection...
Erm, that’s about it for today other than watching “My Name is Earl” which, this series, is back to it’s best, and a show by Derren Brown which was fascinating, entertaining and totally baffling as to how he does what he does...
Lights out...
Highlight of the Day : Rediscovering old stuff...
