love the post. I like the closed record with white front store the best
Interesting stuff, Dick. I like the rare Springsteen "Glory Holes" LP lol.
I was at the original R&B Records years ago, it was a blast. He had a photo of Georgie Woods in the window, captioned "Harvey Holiday". There were a pair of broken sunglasses nailed to a post, labeled "Stevie Wonder's sunglasses, stolen from him at The Apollo Theater when he wasn't looking". 45's on string were dangling from the ceiling.
I told Val I was looking for rockabilly, I didn't know that he wouldn't let anyone flip through his stock. Then I could give his picks a quick test spin on a cheesy fold up record player! I bought about 20 45's, including "Sunglasses After Dark" by Dwight Pullen.
I think he got a prank phone call while I was there. He screamed "Don't ever call here again" at a caller, hung up, and said "He was looking for "Sugar Sugar" by The Archies"! Hilarious!
A great string of pictures. I especially like the record show shots. They remind me of all the ones that I've been to. The time I've spent getting lost in the bins would boggle the mind. I primarily collect comedy but I find a lot of the really neat stuff in the serious sections. Many mainstream artists have put out a funny one or two, if they have I WILL find it. That series of shots with the old rusted water structure has me intrigued.
Great shots. I especially like the record show ones, they remind me of all the time I spent lost in the bins. Certainly brings back memories. The old metal structure by the water has me intrigued.
