I was born in Barcelona, 1973 so I'm 50 years old. I live in a nearby town, Viladecans. I studied computer engineering in the university. Currently unemployed !
I discovered Mike Oldfield in 1985 when my cousin lent me Discovery LP. I collect all material that I can, but I prefer vinyl items and I love singles !
I'm also writing a book with photos about his vinyl releases. It includes biography and it's written in 3 languages: English, German and Spanish. Here the first chapter !
If you want to know a little more about me, check a couple of my hobbies:
Rubik's Cube (I finish it in less than 1 minute)
Basketball (few years collaboration in F.C. Barcelona)
Sometimes dreams come true and one of my dreams was to meet Mike Oldfield. Finally I met him in Valencia, 30th of May, 2002. Mike was there to show to journalists his new album: Tr3s Lunas. Mike Oldfield handsigned some items to some collectors. I'm the guy with a camera in his hands and a white and black bag. Mike handsigned my rare swedish 13 lp vinyl box !
I'm a hardcore Mike Oldfield fan and collector. But I also love a folk rock quartet from Liverpool called River City People. I think they are a quite unknown at the moment, but they did two wonderful albums: Say Something Good (1989) and This Is The World (1991). I love their songs and the voice of the singer, Siobhan Maher. I like to buy a few RCP items time to time. Here you can see all my RCP stuff :
I had a very good friend, Juan Manuel Pérez Sánchez. He past away in 2008 because a terrible illness. He was, as me, a big collector. Not Mike Oldfield, but Kraftwerk. In his memory and as a tribute to him, I want to present his big Kraftwerk collection here:
