Half the truth is often a whole lie -- Ben Franklin (1706-1790)

1-Feb-12: After 10 years lurking, time to add something to the database. Currently processing 3000+ Hi-NRG/Disco 12"ers to be added to my discogs collection. Having fun along the way.

1-May-12: 1860 vinyls processed, but cataloguing suspended due to house move. Still editing other people's subs until I can resume my own.

10-Apr-15: Cataloguing resumed!! Bring on the vinyl!! Started by re-checking my previous subs/edits.

Jun-17: I stopped buying CDs years ago because I'd got most of what I wanted. However, with charity shop/car boot sale prices hitting rock bottom (50p each or even 5 CDs for £1) I've got the bug again, particularly for 90's compilations. Well , it would be rude not to!

Jan-19: As a side activity while 'discog-ing' I sometimes watch vintage TV continuity and adverts on YouTube. Whilst watching this stuff, I often come across TV adverts for old albums, hidden away in 1 hour tape runs usually unlisted / undocumented so would never show up in a search. I've been linking these finds in the comments of Master Releases and they can also be seen on my reviews page.
