The In Deep Music Archive is an eclectic collection of music in many forms. An historical and contemporary library of all available physical formats - Vinyl, CD, Cassette, Reel to Reel tape, 8 Track, 78RPM, VHS, DVD, Laser discs, reference books, encyclopedias, catalogues, biographies and magazines. Collected by Marty Willson-Piper over the past 50 years, the archive has grown into this wonderful collection through a life of scouring the record stores around the world, but also through generous donations from friends, fans and record labels alike. Any funding goes directly towards either running costs or increasing the content. Our ambition for the archive is to create a musical culture centre with a small venue, that will also be used for music lessons and workshops and as a meeting place for music lovers in a unique atmosphere.
Music today comes from June Tabor whose last album in just her name, Ashore (2011), arrived today. If you don’t know her and you love British Folk music she is one of the queens. There is so much I could post about her, there are so many records so all I can suggest is that […]
Music today had to be mellow and when I feel like this I listen to Doris Day’s You’re My Thrill (released in 1949) to soothe my soul. You can’t imagine what an amazing singer she was. You’re My Thrill was originally a 10 inch EP and added to later and released as an LP. She’s […]

Music today has been inspired by singing harmonies and gave me the urge to hear those harmony masters, Crosby, Stills & Nash. That first self-titled album (1969) and the opening track Suite: Judy Blue Eyes – 7.24 – a single was released at 4.34 and reached No.21 on the Billboard Charts in 1969. It’s actually […]
Music today was chosen at random by Olivia and she happened upon Stomu Yamashta’s East Wind. He is a Japanese percussionist who has made some wonderful Jazz-Rock albums. From Wikipedia: “He is best known for pioneering and popularising a fusion of traditional Japanese percussive music with Western progressive rock music in the 1960s and 1970s”. […]
Music today comes from Nederbeat heroes Q65 rediscovering themselves as they enter the seventies. It keeps their energy and has something of The Kinks meets Eric Burdon at The Stones’ house, still a little stuck in their heyday stylistically. The album is called Afghanistan and is supposed to be their more Psychedelic period but that […]
