The 2019 Vinyl Sessions will continue over the next three months with enthusiast John Thornley who will give talks on Icons of Rock Johnny Cash, Aretha Franklin and Bob Dylan.
John's first talk, on Cash, will be on August 9 on the ground floor of the City Library from 2pm-3pm.
Aretha Franklin will be on September 13, and Bob Dylan on October 11, with Powerpoint presentations at each session.
John started collecting vinyl in his teenage years in the 1950s and over the years he has held illustrated talks and workshops.
Church venues were filled in Manawatū for his "Cash comes to Church", and a talk at Te Papa on Bob Marley drew on John's years living in the Caribbean in the late 60s.
