Purchasing Your Records
Now, here is a warning about record collection. The gramophone business nowadays is a thing of high finance. The business men who run the big gramophone companies need to make lots and lots of money. So, if a particular record does not sell in vast numbers, you may find on asking for it that it has been 'withdrawn'. This is the stage at which you need expert guidance as to the best possible substitute for the recording that is no longer available. Fortunately, there are several specialist jazz record dealers who are in it for the spirit of the thingrather than for maximum profits. If you don't know of a reliable jazz dealer in your area, you can get information from the Jazz Record Retailers' Association |
