Music journalist and record collector Pete Paphides takes a look at the vinyl treasures belonging to Wild Beasts and Edwyn Collins.

First up are Hayden Thorpe and Ben Little, the founding members of Cumbrian indie band Wild Beasts, whose second album was nominated for the 2010 Mercury Music Prize.

Pete then visits the home of Edwyn Collins. The Ivor Novello-winning Scottish musician, and former Orange Juice frontman, nearly died after suffering two brain haemorrhages but he's made an incredible recovery and is performing and recording once again.
