#296 Tim Clifford: Curator of Ireland’s Largest Vinyl Record Collection

Tim Clifford is the curator of Ireland’s largest vinyl record collection.

His life’s mission is to collect all the singles that have made it into the top 100 charts between 1952 and 2003.

He’s also co-owner of the historic mansion Abbeydene House which has hosted guests like President Eisenhower, Daniel O’Donnell and international music acts from around the world.

In this episode we talk about:

• Why we love the music of our youth
• His passion for music, collecting and history
• Dong dong the trampoliner
• Jelvis Pelvis
• Blue plaques
• How he’s a weapon on the dance floor
• And the advice he would give to his 18-year old self.
