If you don’t mind I will add this to the Jazz Thread. I am still a bit in shock over this.

Very sad. His last performance, made when he left the ER to come to an Octave Records session before going back again, will be released in a few months. It’s a lovely session and if you watch either of the FR30 videos we made you can hear Ron playing in those.

any comment runs the risk of, “I’m old and don’t like change.” Could be true! Still, it’s a loss. They lost their bear family records distributor status some years back. They really never recovered, plus it’s bachelorette central now….not that that’s all bad. We did a bike tavern thing, culturally HATED in Nashville, and had a ridiculously good time. Yin-Yang but I view loosing Ernest Tubb’s as a major loss to the culture.

Very cool.

I think the resurgence of vinyl is fantastic (even though I don’t currently “imbibe”), and this looks like a classic record store.

Growing up in Northwest, Indiana THE record store (and “head shop”) for me was Hegewisch Records & Tapes in Merrillville, IN:

“Hegewisch Records & Tapes was a mini-empire of independently owned south side [of Chicago] & south suburban shops founded as a late 1960s general store in the namesake Hegewisch neighborhood, before branching out and moving the flagship record store to south suburban Calumet City. Other south suburban locations were in Richton Park and Merrillville, Indiana. Well remembered by 70s and 80s rock fans for a great selection of records & tapes and novelties, the last store standing was the Richton Park, IL shop, which closed for good in the early 2000s.”

LPs and cassettes are my first loves, like many here on the forum I am sure.
