Record collecting in the news

Here are a some articles that I've recently come across involving record collecting.

1) The News Journal interviews Michael Ace, host of WVUD's "Cruisin' America," in a story called "Passion spins at 45 rpm: The soundtrack of his youth thrums a steady backbeat to Newark collector's life."

2) In an interview published back in December, Asbury Park Press talks with Garry Tallent of the E Street Band about his record collecting history and a few of his prized possessions. "I set out a long time ago to try to collect all five Buddy Holly Deccas and all five Elvis Suns. 45s. I like 78s, but they just are so breakable. I had four of 'em for the longest time and getting that last one was just hard to find." The full story is still available online here.

3) From The News Tribune in Tacoma, Washington, "Music collection connection" covers a local record collectors convention.
