My Interests

I'd like to meet:

A TESTIMONIAL:"Grady's Record Refuge is seemingly the last of a dying breed of safe-havens for true music fans. A place where one can feel comfortable, where one can interact with the owner and ask questions, where one can escape the trends and phony crap that surrounds today's music, where one can buy Connie Francis, Hank Williams, the Platters -- I could go on -- records for about $3 or $4 each, where one can buy those soundtracks you've always wanted but couldn't find (on vinyl!!!, the best way to listen to music!), where one can find great cassette tapes (for those who still love tapes, including myself), where one can find record players: (if you DON'T have a record player GET one NOW!), where one can participate in local music......most of all Grady's Record Refuge is a place where one can go to celebrate music." -- YAY! fanzine #1, 2007PHOTOS:
