 Mark Lamarr's Ace Is Wild - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
Well, Lamarr is a highly successful comedian/presenter/emcee from Britain who also happens to be a record collector of renown in that country.
Besides having excellent taste, Lamarr also writes a great set of liner notes, full of wisecracks and off-kilter humor and a sense that you're sitting around spinning records with the guy in his living room.
The blues side of the catalog is well represented, with sides from Sammy Myers, Earl King, H-Bomb Ferguson and Floyd Dixon, while the rockabilly side of the equation gives us rare opuses from the Phaetons, Hershel Almond, Eddy Seacrest and Danny Ray.

Next up for Mark Lamarr is new series of the uncompromising Never Mind the Buzzcocks, starting this autumn.
Though he was an instant hit when he started his career at The Comedy Store one chilly winter evening in 1985, no one could have predicted that the rise and rise of Mark Lamarr would be quite so meteoric or that such a multi-faceted performing future awaited Swindon's first, great stand-up star.
But (surprisingly) it was Lamarr rather than his incisive co-host Terry Christian, who would later move on to more rarefied intellectual pastures, as presenter of BBC2's Edinburgh Nights, getting to grips with the high culture, low comedy and sophisticated cross-fire of the Edinburgh Festival arts scene.

I mean I've had lots and lots of, sort of, very pivotal moments in show biz and stuff, but I wouldn't be as pompous as to claim them as achievements really.
When I joined Equity when I was 18, there was already a Mark Jones, and of course in a union, particularly in that union, you can't have the same name as someone else, so I had to change it for them.

 Absolute Speakers / After Dinner Speakers / Mark Lamarr
He's best known for his dour turn as the resident 50s throwback on BBC 2's Shooting Stars, and as the razor-sharp compere of Never Mind The Buzzcocks.
Shake, Rattle and Roll is Lamarr's idiosyncratic personal pick from his own 10,000-strong record collection of obscure rock'n'roll gems.
When the show launched on Monday 20 July 1998 it found itself 'pick of the day' in 20 newspapers, and subject to musings not only on Mark's 50's popstar look and obsessive record collecting, but also concerning his irrepressible enthusiasm.
