Best 417 record store that no longer exists. The jean Shack? Spin Again ? The record Center ? That one by SMSU ( MSU) on the second floor of that building next to the C-store? That one on Olive next to "that bar"? Lord knows nothing like going to Vintage and have a girl with yellow hair tell you your precious bleep is worth maybe 2 bucks !!!

| That was Record Center. Each place had their own special touch. I bought a lot of great stuff at each place.

| We used to sell records at Burstein-Applebee on the Plaza...I got to hire the record girls so they were always smokin' hot!! Bought most of my 45's back in the day at Shopper's Fair(St. Louis & Glenstone) or The Record Shop at Glenstone & Bennett. Katz also had records.

| And every week most record stores had a folder from KTTS of the top 10 records that week. Anyone know what ever became of the show Country Crosroads that used to be on at 600 am on Sunday mornings on KTTS as we threw our paper routes and waited on Crackerbarrel Time to come on at 700 ?

Record Center was my favorite.
I was also a fan of a record store -- if you want to call it that -- in Lebanon that sold only 45s. It was part of the local jukebox distributor. They serviced every jukebox in the area and the records that were removed from the machines went to the record rack in the lobby.
You rang the buzzer and an older guy with a cigar would roll out the record rack filled with 100s of 45s for....are you ready? $.25!!! That was in my 7 year old budget. I could blow my $2 allowance in seconds. My dad later taught me if I waited I could buy more at once. Even better!

| Bill Mack hosted that show and he now has a show on XM Radio...not sure the channel but you could go to their website and find it. "The Double T Corral of Country Hits" is what we called it...Top 20 songs got a "RED" dot, plus we had the "Pick of the Pickin's", the best new song, and the "Double T CD (or album) of the week. Good times...

| Country Crossroads was produced by the Southern Baptists, along with shows for about every musical genre. Might go through the layers of their website to see if anything like that exists. Last edited on Thu Oct 8th, 2009 11:46 pm by Buddy Dornster

| I wish there would be a new music/video store on the mall. Since Fye left, there is little reason for me to go to the mall.
