The Art Of Beat Digging Radio Documentary......

Caught this radio documentary the other day on the modern pastime of beat digging titled.....'Beat Mining With The Vinyl Hoover'...check it....its good stuff.....



"Broadcaster Toby Amies digs into the archives to discover the value and significance of old vinyl. He uncovers a network of dealers and buyers, supplying a community of 'crate diggers' and 'beat miners' and a world in which samples from records bought for a few pence in a car boot sale can provide the basis for a million-selling hit".
