Today is the 15th anniversary of the very first “Record Store Day,” which took place April 19, 2008, to celebrate and support independent retailers of recorded music around the United States.
Record Store Day
“I do remember my first record, which was ‘The Ballad of Billy the Kid’ by Marty Robbins,” Governor Inslee told KIRO Newsradio. “My Grandma had it. I played that a thousand times. I was about six years old, and fortunately, it didn’t affect me, because I managed to not be a gunfighter.”And here’s a little taste of “Billy the Kid” by Marty Robbins.
When Executive Constantine was a kid, he lived in West Seattle, which is where he says he pedaled his Schwinn Stingray to go and buy his first record. He says that local, neighborhood record stores with real live staff are an essential part of their communities, and are on the front lines of what can still be special about the music industry.
But, the mayor says, he no longer has his record collection – and many people, sadly perhaps, can identify with the fate of Mayor Harrell’s vintage vinyl.
