John Stapleton

Bristol-based record collector, DJ and record shop owner.

I own Wanted Records in the centre of Bristol, selling all kinds of quality secondhand records. I DJ at various events around Bristol and beyond, playing strictly original vinyl. You can also find me at occasional festivals, and of course am always interested in DJ dates around the world!

In the past I compiled the 'Dope on Plastic' series for React Music, which sold about 250,000 copies between them, and also a few LPs for the Harmless label, focusing on psychedelic funk, folk-funk amongst other things...

DJed extensively around the UK, across Europe and a fair few times in Australia, as well as the Glastonbury Festival for many years.
