About me: I love all sorts of music but have a large collection of old 78s spanning 1908 to the late '50's. A while back i posted a few of these on You tube, having filmed them playing on an old 1950s Dansette record player. They were intended just to show my friends certain records from the collection, but the response generally from You Tube viewers was amazing, so i've been putting a few up every week, and now have over 800 videos up. You can go and see them at My You Tube page

Please check out our new comedic “vampire bankers” music video. The guy who directed this also directed Madonna’s first music vid. We think it’s pretty funny. It’s available as a free mp3 download on http://www.ukejackson.com
