2011 Focusing on Making New Music & Still Selling Vinyl (LP’s, 45′s, 78′s) at Tynemouth Market

2011 is  going to be a year of focusing on music. I’m concentrating on the band rather than art. I’m not going to really say any more about the band on my blog because we all want it to be right before realeasing anything into the public domain… in fact we might not put anything on the web at all and just play live! All I will say is that I’m really enjoying the recording process after sourcing the kit of ebay.

Whilst I’ve stopped selling my oringal art at Tynemouth market I am still a regular there selling a great range of Lps.

Every saturday I share my stall with Elizabeth Kane opposite my dads stall.

When I’m there on a sunday I share my stall with Alan Edge.

We sell vinyl (LP’s, 45′s, 78′s) covering 60s, 70s and 80s pop and rock, Jazz, Swing, Rocka/Psychabilly, Ska, Lounge, Film Soundtracks, Soul, Early electronica, Americana, Euro jazz… we can source also vintage record players and have an assortment of memorabilia, collectables and vintage cameras. Our stock is constantly changing and we are very passionate about the music we sell so enjoy talking about music. You can probably spot us in the image below… where by the iron fence next to the station platform about half way up!

My dad sells toys and collectables on his stall stall. His wares include wrestlers, star wars figures, Lego, vintage toy vehicles, hot wheels, comics, sci fi and fantasy action figures, animals… and a selection of beautiful electric and acoustic guitars to suit all budgets (which I tune and restring as necessary).

Tynemouth Market has been a quieter in January than last year so fingers crossed business picks up.

Cheers.

Another Collagraph comes online…

“Cell Number One” (2009) Collagraph on paper by James William Nicholson is an experiment in composition.

Looking at other websites with round collagraphs there seems to be a strong link between circular compositions and subjects relating to the spiritual world. This could be connected to the idea that the circle in design conveys the notion of an eternal line (whilst the square represents the physical world with boundaries and limitations).

Cell no.1

We know that cells exist whilst they remain invisible to the naked eye… The cell, a basic building block in biology, is something we know exists whereas anything spiritial relates to faith. I like the play between what we know and have proof of, and what we believe and have faith in. Using a ‘spiritual’ composition for something that is  everyday rather than divine or mystical is an interesting proposition.
