Stewart Mason -- Karmic Warrior!
When I moved last year, I hauled boxes of CDs and vinyl to Reckless
Records...and I sold a lot more vinyl for better prices. In fact, I was
told that employees were buying some of the stuff before it could get out on
the floor. There is certainly a cult of vinyl.
Peter Kuehl and Christopher Grey (Auditeers in good standing) recently took
over an online vinyl store called platterpus.com. Maybe folks should check
that out.
