I should made it clear he was making a digital collection and not a physical one. I'm not sure why he chose those years, I think that was mainly where his original interests focused and shit just snowballed. Beyond the time period constraints he just wanted EVERYTHING. No quality filter, no...

I spoke to a guy online recently who said he was trying to collect a copy of every single song released commercially from 1950 to 1980. I thought maybe he was trolling but he was earnestly genuine. Such aspirations seem pretty borderline mental illness tbh, but maybe I just lack that dreamer...

I vaguely remember talk of how, at the time, people's drug habits where being taken into the football grounds, starting the weekend early like, or maybe just continuing from the night before. E's emerging popularity definitely had a passing effect. I once had a chat, over some records, with a...
