Some of the recordings here I still own, and a lot of them I once owned. But many of them I will never own, and that's why I created this blog -- to build a "virtual" record collection unconstrained by considerations like availability, money and space. As a bonus, the virtual collection generates no dust, eliminates clutter, is utterly portable and invisible to my wife! 
I first started crate digging about 25 years ago (before the term was coined, I'm sure) and have found something of interest in almost every genre and format. Thus you will find here an eclectic mix of items that range throughout American popular and niche music in the 20th century. These days the records I prefer are 78 rpms, but I still collect jazz and soul on LPs and have an ambition to run the James Brown catalog.... 
After 25 years of digging, I also have a mountain of stuff that I would be just as happy to be rid of. That's the other purpose behind this blog - to get the word out about my store pages at GEMM, eBay, and Venerable Music. The right side column is devoted to links to my store pages and a sampling of items I have for sale on them. 
To quickly browse the content for items of interest, click on the genre pages below right. The links on each page will (soon) be organized alphabetically by artist.
