Półeczka z płytami to felietony muzyczne opublikowane w rubryce "Kolej na muzykę" w magazynie Wolna Droga w latach 2016-2022.
Krzysztof Wieczorek – absolwent dziennikarstwa i kulturoznawstwa, pasjonat muzyki i historii. Prowadzony przez niego w „Wolnej Drodze” dział „Kolej na muzykę” od dawna cieszy się sporym zainteresowaniem Czytelników.
Nic dziwnego, zważywszy, że jego autor to także były dziennikarz Radia „Plus”, prowadzący w latach 1997-2002 autorską cotygodniową audycję „Klasyka nie tylko rocka” i kilka innych o podobnej tematyce. Nadto, przez kilka lat prowadził w Internecie własny blog muzyczny „Półeczka z płytami”.
Dogłębna wiedza i swobodne poruszanie się w obszarze krajowej i światowej muzyki to również wynik kolekcjonerskiego hobby, które przełożyło się na ogromny zbiór, liczący ok. dwóch tysięcy winyli oraz ponad siedmiu tysięcy srebrnych krążków CD ze świata rocka, jazzu, popu i muzyki klasycznej.
Krzysztof Wieczorek poza tematyką stricte muzyczną jest także miłośnikiem historii oraz autorem poczytnej w „Wolnej Drodze” rubryki „Kolej na historię”.

Told with Lemmy's indomitable charisma and humour, this is the autobiography of a rock icon who over the past thirty years in the industry, has stayed true to his music, his fans and his pleasures. Lemmy was born Ian Fraser Kilmister in 1945, the son of a vicar who walked out on his mother when Lemmy was just three months old. Having been inspired to play the guitar by Chicks, Little Richard and Buddy Holly, Lemmy formed what would become the ultimate metal group in 1975 and christened them Motorhead.
The group went on to embrace a rock-and-roll lifestyle fuelled by drink, drugs and women, and in the process released twenty-one albums and attracted a huge following. WHITE LINE FEVER is a truly headbanging tour through the last few decades of speedmetal, offering a sometimes hilarious, often outrageous, but highly entertaining trip with the frontman of the loudest rock band in the world.
