Classic Album Sundays supremo Colleen Murphy surrounded by some of her 10,000 records
It was a chance encounter in the school playground that led to Colleen Murphy launching her first Classic Album Sundays event in London in 2010, and seven years later she’s presided over events at UK festivals, in seven US cities, in Japan and Australia and all over Europe – with a collaboration with the Royal Albert Hall in the pipeline.
The radio DJ had held a few lowkey listening events for friends at her London home, playing records on her sound system (a modified Technics 1100 with Koetsu tonearm and Rosewood Signature Moving Coil Cartridge, Mark Levinson ML-1 preamp, Quad monoblock amps and Klipschorn Loudspeakers).
