KNOCK, KNOCK (Knocking on the Closet Door)

Who Is It?

Hello. Allow me to introduce myself.You may call me Dr Eyescope.
I wrote a comment here some 5 months ago, telling Grey Calx how much I loved his (for me; newly discovered) blog, and offering to contribute, if he would like me to.
At that time, I knew nothing about digitizing music, using a scanner, or uploading.
In other words: Blogging.
Zilch.
But, as it happened, Grey Calx liked the content of my collection (and, I suppose,the
'cut of my jib'), and so my "apprenticeship" began. (That is; many emails with tips, suggestions and the basics of blog).
Now, a little later than we estimated, here I am.
My grateful thanks to you, Grey Calx.

What MUSIC?

I began collecting records as an adolescent, but I really got going when, (in about 1979) I was introduced to the used record stores in my city.I stopped collecting in about 1997 or so, when the prices became inflated, and the selection thinned out.I now buy fewer than 10 vinyl records a year.(Usually directly from the artists at live shows).
But in between '79 and '97 I collected voraciously- focussing mainly on the 'avant-garde' strains of Rock, Jazz, and Classical music.
I have always enjoyed sharing my records with others,mostly by D.J.ing on student radio a fair bit over the years.
Now I have the opportunity to share some of my favorite music (and other stuff) with you in A Closet Of Curiosities.

I hope you enjoy it.

Sincerely, Dr Eyescope.

b.t.w: I take requests.
