I had a chance to swing by and sneak a peak into the windows this morning. It's hard to make out what's inside as the majority of the palettes are covered with a tarps, but it appears that if you are on the prowl for hundreds of copies of cut out Isaac Hayes' Tough Guys Soundtrack, then this is your spot! The warehouse is in the right spot if it does go up in flames as the fire station is just across the street!
Is it weird that the city is all on this guy's ass about the contents of his warehouse? It can't be the only building in town that could start on fire or whatever. Sounds to me like some crooked councilman is trying to unwrap the sealed crust within. :eyeball:
just to put fluttering hearts to rest, i found somethings out about the place that make it sound like much less of a magic arc of the covenant. japanese were in there in the 90s, for one. but the million records are actually quantity of 20k plus records, mostly being gene autry style bangers. some good titles, but not rain makers. now dudes phone is ringing off the hook, people offering him a million bucks and he's not sure what to do anymore.

my friend got the stock rundown and said there was nothing crazy crazy. definitely some decent records and definitely lots and lots of swill. he was negotiating something that would have worked for him until the news blew shit out the water. now the guy thinks hes gonna get al qaeda money for jacksons records. apparently he wasnt a record collector
he was a dude who just bought shit that seemed to be decent investments. it was more by the pallete than by frequent trips to the record store. he didnt know what the fuck was in those boxes.

Are these guys even around anymore? Filling warehouses? Just curious...

I was thinking that too.
he may not have been a "connoisseur", but dude was definitely collecting records
'Collecting' implies some type of curatorial aspect, this guy sounds like he was accumulating, if not hoarding.
So???. when records "collect" dust, they make sure it's well curated dust?
Please.
