Each week on Vinyl Joblottin’ we buy a bundle of vinyl at auction (or find one in a record shop, charity shop, car boot sale, etc). The records are a slice of a collection, giving us a glimpse into a collector’s past. Then we spin each joblot into a theme for you.

Welcome to Vinyl Joblottin'
Listen to episode 23 here - https://www.mixcloud.com/AlbanLow/golf-drouot-vinyl-joblottin-ep23/

These records were released in France between 1962 and 1964. When I began listening and researching them they led to the 9th arrondissement of Paris. On the corner of rue Drouot and Boulevard Montmartre, above the Café d'Angleterre, I found France’s ‘Temple of Rock’. It was called Golf Drouot, and hosted such great names as Johnny Hallyday, Eddy Mitchell, Gene Vincent, the Who and David Bowie.

I would like to spend a month in Paris. My days would be full of sketching, visiting galleries and hunting for vinyl in record shops. In a recent joblot I found a 7” single from the MGM film soundtrack An American In Paris. It has inspired me find other records from Americans who have called Paris their home.
