WildGoose Records WildGoose Records specialises in releasing and selling mainly traditional folk music. Over the years For Doug, folk music has been a life-long passion.

Wherwell is the home of WildGoose Records and Studio, which started out as the outbuilding -- ‘Doug’s shed’ – an ivy covered lean-to with a corrugated roof - that came with the cottage where Doug and Sue Bailey live. Sue and Doug removed the ivy (with a crow bar) and started to use it for his hobby of recording some of his beloved folk music. It seemed that English music was nowhere and if it was

available, it was not well recorded. Most of the artists he wanted to record had no money to pay for recording so the only way he could cover costs was to sell the albums mail order to (hopefully) cover costs. He started singing and playing guitar and mandolin at home in Wolverhampton as a teenager, before he went to university in London. Recording music provided a good contrast to his job as a senior IBM IT technician from which he retired some years ago, thus having more time for his hobby and for passing on his expertise to the younger generation.
