Colin L. McMaster

Welcome to my home page. It is very much under construction, but I am able to share some interesting things with you.

Music

I am an avid music fan with a wide range of likes and dislikes. I began collecting records with the first two Yardbirds records For Your Love and Having a Rave Up with The Yardbirds. The music of the British invasion of the early 60's is near and dear to me, especially The Yardbirds and their many progeny (Jeff Beck, Eric Clapton, Led Zeppelin, Box of Frogs, etc.), The Kinks, The Who, The Move, and, of course, The Beatles and The Stones. Not to forget the Captain, Don Van Vliet and, of course, Pere Ubu. Over the years, I have developed a taste for jazz, and am now very interested in avant garde jazz including Miniature, Tim Berne, Bill Frisell, Last Exit, Sonny Sharrock, P-Funk, ... .

Each week, I publish a list of new and vault CD releases mostly from Amazon. Here are this week's fresh choices.
