I went to Record Mart regularly in the 90s. Went there once in 85 and a few times after they reopened after the major Times Square renovation. Didn't buy as much as I would have liked.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 4:26pm

I found out about them before I moved to NYC, latin percussionists friends were getting amazing Cuban records from there in the 80s which is why I searched for it on my visit in 85. (Moved to NYC in 92.)

All gone now. Can't remember if I ever went in though. Unlike most of you I've never been much of a collector- and with friends like David and many of the other music inhalers around me (and the Outpost) I never had to shell out! Between mixtapes and late files from friends and the radio my larder was miraculously always full! And now of course I buy online and need no shelves or milk crates...

Archive listening since I only caught the last part of the program on Wednesday. Yes the Mitchell/ Filidei piece is incredible. Will have to listen to it again. Greatly appreciate Massimo's role in capturing the sounds. And his comments answered some questions i was having: i was wondering if Mitchell was doing some looped with his horn but what i heard may have been when he was playing two horns. Massimo confirmed two horns. Thank you.. While hearing music like this live, in person is an intense and amazing experience, being able to listen deeply more than once and even listen a few times when doing something else enables us to hear more, have wider variety of experience associated with the music. So so very wonderful.
