Record collector from Central Scotland, originally from Leith, Edinburgh. Currently drowning in 70s era Dad-Rock, its my thing I'm afraid. Please send more vinyl, but CD, cassettes, music biographies etc all considered. Especially classic 70s rock, fusion, prog-rock, The Beatles, Yes, Pat Metheny, John McLaughlin, Jeff Beck, Mike Scott/The Waterboys, Neil Young, the ECM label, classic jazz, whatever you have. Activities on here are usually centred on collection and inventory issues (see below), to allow time to for listening to music, spending time with family & friends, following my football team., dreaming of Italy and fresh pasta.

And red wine. Lots of red wine....

After nearly 8 years on here as a contributor, editor and buyer, I have started selling off surplus & duplicate CDs, initially selling to the UK only. As I build up selling experience, I will widen to other countries and also begin to add vinyl etc to my inventory.

I need to establish a positive reputation, and feedback, so please let me know if things need improving. in order that I make a positive contribution to the marketplace.
