I used to be a big customer and receive their weekly e-mails. Last week I placed my first order in four years. [No longer buy as much classical.] Today I got the following email. Kind of sad, like the end of an era. A Note from Berkshire Record Outlet Dear fellow music-lovers, The time has come to announce our closure within the next sixty days. In the interim, we have a backlog of new and restocked titles that we plan to offer you via our usual updates, in preparation for the subsequent sale of the entire inventory to a consortium of wholesalers. With one exception, we’re all well past retirement age, and the challenges of running a niche business in the year 2025 are more than this near octogenarian is willing to confront. In short, after fifty-one years, we bid you farewell. Thank you all for your patronage. Best wishes, Joe Eckstein

I said it backwards, sorry. I meant that he probably had MORE respect for real players like Tjader than he would have had for the likes of Fogerty.
