A property developer and drummer who bought journalist Glenn A. Baker’s collection of 80,000 records and CDs will put it on permanent display at the $235 million entertainment precinct he’s building on NSW’s Lake Macquarie.

Winarch Group director and founder Paul Lambess was among a handful of bidders at last week’s online auction for Baker’s collection, which in addition to the 50,000 vinyl records includes 30,000 CDs and a trove of music memorabilia amassed by the music guru over 60 years.
