Get some soul, blues and rockabilly records made right at the source!

Tennessee is one of the few states I have yet to visit, and I am anxious to visit Memphis and Nashville. So much incredible music came from there.

I respect the people who dive into this industry. It's gutsy, although setting up with used equipment in vacant space is probably low cost, so you can get in, turn a quick profit and get out if things slow down. I've seen people do the same in completely different industries. Large companies can't support old technology economically, but small outfits can turn a profit for several years selling end of life products. Of course, I hope this resurgence goes on for fifty years! My daughter will be able to play a 100 year old LP on her 100 year old hand me down turntable. Maybe on a hundred year old recapped recapped recapped receiver....

I'm "Sho nuff" glad to see this vinyl resurgence in the Mid South. Maybe I can stop by for a tour the next time I head South, and home. Looks like it is about 2 miles off I-40 and 23 miles from Graceland.

Now I'll have to look up Fat Possum and see if I recognize any of their artists or music......
