This is my first blog post using Blogger, I thought it was about time to get myself a blog that will actually be suited to what I want to post. Previously I have been using Tumblr and noticed that most people on there use it as a microblog, posting quotes and pictures, whereas I was posting longer pieces that weren't particularly well suited to the Tumblr community. I think I will keep my Tumblr account and use it for more spontaneous posts, whilst using this one for longer dedicated pieces. But I will try to post everything on here as well.

Basically I am an avid music fan and vinyl collector. Since the beginning of 2011 I have been involved in the 'vinyl community' on YouTube, a group of committed record collectors who have remained loyal to the vinyl format for listening to music. It started out as just a few guys but has grown into a truly international community of hundreds of people that buy and collect vinyl records. They then make videos showing viewers what they have bought and talking about the music they are interested in. There are also regular 'threads' designed to share thoughts on anything and everything music related. This community has helped me greatly to discover and learn about the endless world of music and all that it entails. I have made many friends through it too from all around the world. I am still making videos but on a much less regular basis than I did in 2011 due to university, but would still appreciate you checking out and maybe subscribing to my channel.

As you can probably tell by my blog's name, I am also a huge Bob Dylan fan. His music inspired me to make my YouTube channel in the first place and he continues to be a huge part of my life. So expect a lot of Dylan related content from this blog, among all the other music I am interested in. My taste is greatly more expansive than it was a couple of years ago and now I will listen to anything from hip hop to metal to folk, so don't be put off if you're not a Dylan fan.
Finally if you want to follow me on twitter then feel free, I'm always up for a chat about pretty much anything under the sun.
