I\u2019m developing \u2018A Condensed History\u2019 comprised of six parts, documenting my journey through a life with a love of music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Past<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It starts in the \u201860\u2019s &#8211; I was born and there were some sounds. The \u201870\u2019s was the time of my first stereo system and Progressive Rock, handing over to Punk &#8211; the most formative years. The \u201880\u2019s brought Post-Punk via New Order and the beginning of Dance Music with The Orb. The \u201890\u2019s saw me develop my CD collection and The Shamen were riding high. In the 2000\u2019s I upgraded to a Stereo System and took my children to see some Live music as well as going with <a href=\"https:\/\/murpworks.com\/about.html\">mu<\/a> to Glastonbury, for the first time. Metal was a prominent genre for me at this time. The 2010\u2019s saw a re-interest in vinyl and Prog and I added Jazz to the canon of music that is: musicfan6160.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Present<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As we move into the 2020\u2019s, my love of music has only grown greater. After creating a smaller Hi Fi system to fit into our new smaller <a href=\"https:\/\/murpworks.com\/afloat.html\">floating home<\/a>, I get to upgrade it a little to create a more audiophile sound, as befits the love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once the condensed history is out of the way, I can get down to the nitty gritty of it all, on a day to day basis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is the start of a music blog &#8211; my music blog&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So if you\u2019re interested, follow me on my journey of reminiscence and discovery &#8211; so many albums, so little time\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"200\" height=\"100\" src=\"https:\/\/www.murpworks.com\/musicfan6160\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/murpworks_6160_bauhaus_frame_logo_web-1.png\" alt=\"murpworks - musicfan6160 - bauhaus text logo image\" class=\"wp-image-679\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The start of a music blog I love music, it means something.
