I've had a fascination with the 78rpm disc, since the late 60t's/early 70t's as my maternal grandparents had a small collection of about 200 of them and i was always in amongst them on my visits to their house. Fast forward to late 1986. I saw Dennis Potters Singing Detective on BBC TV. Fell in love with the programme and its soundtrack music. I acquired the LP and virtually played it to death over the next few months. Then one day was just harking back to the 70t's days at my grandparents house and the 78's it just occurred to me why not try to get these fabulous tunes on the soundtrack on the original discs ... guess it just sort of escalated from there..anyroads...30 years down the line..am still chipping away at it :)
