   About The Caretaker
The Caretaker selects and steals memories from a bygone era. Whose memories these are remain a complete mystery. Four albums have been released on V/Vm Test Records. Selected Memories From The Haunted Ballroom. A Stairway To The Stars We'll All Go Riding On A Rainbow Theoretically Pure Anterograde Amnesia These have received critical acclaim in many worldwide publications and airplay on many radio stations. One of the biggest supporters of The Caretaker was the late John Peel. Reviews have also appeared in the Wire, on the BBC website and bizarrely in Russian Playboy. "You are The Caretaker, you've always been the caretaker, I should know because i have always been here." Be sure to visit the V/Vm Test website where you can download over one hundred tracks by The Caretaker for free and purchase CD and VINYL releases.
