I was searching for a CD in the cupboard that contains all my CD’s I must have about a thousand of the things that I have accumulated since the eighties. I have another cupboard with my teenage vinyl!
I came across discs where I cannot remember anything about the music on them.
Once or twice a year I listen to a (now ripped) CD by a folkie called Mark Gillespie, and have been wondering for years where I came across him.
Recently a friend asked me about Albert Lee and I reminded him we’d both seen him at Cropredy Festival years ago. A quick Google later I knew that it had been the 2003 festival and also knew that’s where I’d seen Mark Gillespie and presumably bought the album.
I’m finally getting round to re-alpha’ing my records and CD’s after some changes in the room a while back. I’m finding the opposite, “Oh that’s great, brilliant album, not had that on for yonks, I must play that back”. Reckon I have enough ‘new’ stuff to last me until about May!
Played this album incessantly during the late 60s (and learned some of the guitar parts) then completely forgot about it until sorting though my remaining LPs late last year.
