Step into the passionate world of vinyl collectors and music aficionados with Needlepoint, the fresh voice in music podcasting from Record Collector magazine. Magazine editor Paul Lester and Rare Record Price Guide editor Daryl Easlea invite you to experience rock's rich tapestry through their expert lens, offering insights that only decades of immersion in music culture could provide.
The debut episode centres on Johnny Rotten's surprising record collection, revealing how the punk icon's musical tastes extended far beyond the confines of his public persona. Through an exclusive interview, we discover Lydon finding solace in his vinyl collection following the loss of his beloved wife Nora, presenting a touching human side rarely seen in traditional media coverage. This 14-page feature exemplifies Record Collector's commitment to exploring artists beyond surface-level narratives.
The music of 10cc, Missy Elliott, and The Jam are all under the scrutiny of Lester and Easlea.
For collectors, the podcast delivers invaluable market insights as Easlea shares expert knowledge on valuation fluctuations, revealing how 90s vinyl has surged in value. Anecdotes about attending auctions, discovering records valued at thousands, and the preservation of musical memorabilia (including signed ABBA soap!) provide both practical collecting wisdom and charming glimpses into music's material culture.
Join us monthly for this needle-sharp exploration of music history, collecting culture, and the stories behind your favourite albums. Whether you're a serious collector or simply curious about the tales your records could tell, Needlepoint connects the grooves that bring music's hidden histories to life.
