I read your writeup about record collecting and it struck a nerve in me. I started collecting jazz records back in the early fifties. I think my first record ever was “Ambassador Satch” from Columbia Record Club which is now long gone and in another entity known as BMG Music. My collection became pretty big until hard times hit me in the early eighties and I had to sell many of the records for the then going rate of $1.00 per record. Now, I’m in the process of replacing what I sold and I’m doing it from memory. May jazz live on for the enjoyment of all of us and future generations. It is truly an American original art form.
