About Elroy Sanford
(Top Expert on this page)

Expertise
Questions regarding group and solo albums and his music career from his time in Winnipeg are my strongest area of expertise, followed by general questions about himself and his family. I have absolutely no connections to Mr. Young or any of his friends or family, though, so "insider" questions probably cannot be answered.

Experience
Over the last few years, I have acquired every album by Mr. Young (only missing a few single sides), have bought numerous biographies and have learned as much as I can about Mr. Young.

Education/Credentials
B. A. in Political Science and History, August 2004.
Briefly studied at the Master's level, 2005-2006.
Over 1,250 albums.
