Lovely piece from the busiest man in the disc cutting world, Ben Soundhog, about the history of some of the previous holders of that title, back in a time when phone numbers were just 4 digits.

I wrote about people who cut records in living rooms & sheds in the '60s & '70s, especially one chap located on the outskirts of that there London. Possible 'TVPs/Ed Ball interest'. It's way too long for this particular platform, but I posted it on my website - link: plastidisc.com/july-2026-a-...

You're not supposed to admit you're struggling. But we r - and I know for a fact we're not alone. The grassroots is dying - it needs U to keep it alive. Buy something from a small label/press. Tell ppl about it who don't often support such things. Explain to them why it's so important. PLS SHARE.

I appreciate everyone has precious little spare cash at the moment. If, however, you did feel you could part with a few pounds, then it would mean a lot to me if you donated to this. I'm raising money for Lewy Body Dementia, which is responsible for my family being in the worst time of our lives.
