"“We had no desire to split up his beloved record collection but have included in the sale a selection of particularly rare or unique records that do not take away from the integrity of his archive.”

Hmm, the two halves of the sentence don't quite tally for me :wink: . If you don't desire to split it up, don't split it up.

Mrs Perrin keeps asking me who's going to want my collection of zillions of early 60's platters. I always tell her I've no desire to split it up. Trouble is, as with any collection of stuff from a stiff (sorry) it's always the poor kids who have to work out what to do with it, and it's rarely likely they will have anything like the interest in it that the original collector had.

For me , like many others on here i Suspect, listening to John Peel late at night and getting up knackered for school the next morning was a masive part of my adolescence. I'd like to have seen his record collection kept complete and saved for the nation somehow. But at the same time I can't blame his family for cashing in on some of the more valuable stuff. Hard to beleive its almost twenty years since he died.
