Record Check
You've screenshotprobably seen them before. They scrounge around the darkened corners of record stores, frequent the bins at thrift shops, and hunt through boxes at yard sales. Known as crate diggers, these LP-hungry B-boys are on the lookout for the rare, the obscure, and the just plain wild -- almost anything unique and original will do. This fascinating look at the collections of DJs and crate diggers provides a welcome walk through the world of funky breaks, tight horns, and perfect beats. Each DJ contributes a selection of gems from his or her personal collection, along with pictures and enlightening commentary. For starters, we recommend sampling either Diplodocus or Amir to get a little flavor. We're sure you'll enjoy this peek into the eclectic sounds that keeps the turntables turnin'. (in Collecting)
