Steve McLean is a comedian and writer from Scotland, currently living in London.

His trilogy of shows based on merchandise (Action Figure Archive, Action Figure Archive Volume 2 and Action Figure Archive Retrosexual) made multiple top ten lists and toured internationally.

His favourite Deep Purple album is Come Taste the Band. He knows this will win him no favours among the hardcore.

Sooooo the thing I’m excited to share…

Remember when I said that I sat down to write some blogs and I ended up with a book? It’s true! The four Wednesdays will see the New Vinyl Villain publish the work…

Part One is ‘Stealing Fleetwood Mac’ It documents the story of a band who were put out on the road in 1974 as Fleetwood Mac but with no actual members of Fleetwood Mac.

Over the next few weeks there’ll be blogs about The MC5. The Velvet Underground and Cactus… with more to follow in a couple of months.

I hope you enjoy them…
