You say there is no history now.
I'd have to aggree with you.
Having run a record store in the 90's - 01', I used to love digging for original 12"s where the samples that everyone loves originated from and getting my customers to learn more of the history of the music that moved them.
I miss the crate digging and the feeling that things were rare or one of a kind. Now it seems that things have changed forever in music. It's not a bad thing those days are done, but I will miss it.

Thanks for the stories and the history.

Speaking of your relationship with TRAX records... My parnter in the record store KHAN gave them a album in the early 90's. It was rejected only to be released 7 years later with JOEY BELTRAM's name as the artist.
Shifty.
