Keith Glass went from successful and popular musician touring the world to a vinyl record store owner in Mobile, Alabama where the world is now coming to him. Just last week a group of guys from France came to Mobile to shop in his store. Originally concerned if he could fill the store with enough inventory, he's now packed to the seams. And the vinyl record business is for real today, much to my own surprise. Not only collectors looking for rare and valuable collector's pieces, but new albums by current artists, too. We meet Keith and learn a lot about this sector of the music business.
