Having made a success of the record trade, Michel Veenstra and his brother Stephan purchased the business from founder Martin Klinkhamer in 2005. “We kept the name” says Michel “since we both loved it, and it was already well-known in our town.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStarting out as a record dealer in the late 90s, Veenstra soon found himself a regular at the World-famous Utrecht Record Fair, and has been trading records and antiques full-time ever since. Enjoying privileged access to rare and forgotten jazz music from the Netherlands and beyond, creating his own compilation was an idea Michel had been toying with for several years, but it wasn’t until meeting Jean-Claude that plans became concrete. A list of rare, never-before reissued records was submitted to \u003cspan class=\"caps\"\u003eBBE\u003c\/span\u003e and the painstaking work of licensing the music began.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFeaturing mostly cuts from the late 70s and early to mid 80s, ‘An Introduction To… Klinkhamer Records’ explores some true ‘holy grail’ records, mainly from across Holland, but also roaming as far as Chicago and Italy in search of sublime jazz, blues and even gospel sounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“When it comes to records” says Jean-Claude, “this guy knows his onions on a whole other level; his commitment to the cause is unwavering at a time when it is getting increasingly harder to run an indie shop. So, if you find yourself in Holland for whatever reason and are a vinyl freak, do yourself the biggest favour and pay a visit to Klinkhamer Records.”\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003e1 LP + 7\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003eFocus track: “Holy Ghost” by Eddie Holman\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003eRare, never before reissued jazz sounds from across the globe.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003eSelected by Michel Veenstra, renowned Dutch record dealer and founder of ‘Klinkhamer Records’.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003eFull Global press and radio campaign- \u003cspan class=\"caps\"\u003eUSA\u003c\/span\u003e by Scorepress\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e BBE620 -Artist-Various Artists\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 4\/15\/22\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat Detail: LP + 7” Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Jazz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Apocalypse Vinyl","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42868962361406,"sku":"UAKM5B-3KVU-CU","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2059\/7683\/files\/various-artists-if-music-presents-you-need-this-klinkhamer-records_Jozwk.jpg?v=1780825618","url":"https:\/\/goldenapplecomics.com\/products\/if-music-presents-you-need-this-klinkhamer-records-vinyl","provider":"Golden Apple Comics","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
