Noticed this when I was on the Guardian site (reading Kate Bush reviews of course):

A pleasingly reductionist view of summat that it's taken me 25yrs to get any sort of handle on and I'm still essentially a beginner / complete amateur.
If only I'd read this article in the mid-80s, I could be an avaricious little twat, rather than someone who's in it for the thrill of the chase and the joy of discovering new music.
As I've always found, if you buy summat specifically to sell on for profit, the karmic balance ensures that you get stung, whereas picking up curios for the fun of it seems to reward you. But I've always been an idealist / romanticist, rather than a pragmatist.
Which is why I'm skint but have some good tunes to listen to while I heat up the beans on toast.
