    2. Location: Lower East Village, Manhattan
    3. Years of Digging: 15, maybe 8 of that knowing wtf I am doing... haha...

Music I Collect: Soul (all kinds but I've got a sweet tooth for falsetto leads and group harmonies), reggae (vocal and dub, late 60s to early 80s), jazz (hard, modal, somewhat spiritual but not too free, a bit of soul-jazz and fusion but not much), brazilian (60s-early 70s)... and a bit of everything else.
    5. What Brought Me To Soulstrut: a mention on Phill Most's WOB site years ago around the time of brainfreeze. It had to do with a racial argument, no lie.
    6. My Most Prized Record And Why: probably the handful of records that nobody I know has ever seen or has any info on, everything else is replaceable. Trinity Stage Production, Ruth Waters Show Band disco 45s, Michael Boothman "What You Won't Do For Love" 12", mystery Stamford CT Gospel LP...
