THIS
SITE IS DEDICATED TO FRANK BRISTOW
AND HIS “MUSIC FROM THE PAST” COLLECTION
My brother Frank’s hobby, is to
choose a specific artist or orchestra’s music
from the past. Then he and other collector
friends select a series of favourite tracks from
their record libraries. These tracks are then
put together, the background noises reduced and
the music produced on a CD. What impresses me is that all of his album
designs, his knowledge and research on the
history and background of the artists is so well
done and makes such interesting listening and
reading. I find his work professional and
superb. These CD’s when played back on
today’s equipment give him and other fellow
music lovers hours of pleasant listening.
He
methodically catalogues his list of achievements
on his computer. As Frank is in his late
seventies I am very proud of the way he has
converted his lists from handwriting, then
typewriting and now to recording them on computer.
He now has over 200 CDs he has compiled and
entered in this way and continues to add to his
collection.
Frank is always interested in hearing from other
collectors of music from the past.
