streamable, and record related.

You need to listen to Joe Bussards interview with talk, owning, digging, and playing the rare black patti 78s.
Way cool. Joe puts Rockadelic trips to shame.

    really valid comparisons there, like time in history isn't a factor.

    Dude is legendary and yes, his trips are the ones I drool over.

    b/w

    I had some digging trips back 20-25 years ago that would have dudes falling out their chairs in 2010.

    Seriously. Bussard and his ilk were canvassing backwoods and black neighborhoods 50 years ago, door to door asking about records. It was quite literally a whole different world.
    Very few people are doing the kind of stuff Rock does these days. I wish I had the time and resources to dig like that.
