The Clerk's read on this shelf

Look at this room. Three thousand three hundred and ninety-seven records deep across sixteen hundred artists, and the entire center of gravity is glued right to the 1970s with 1,372 titles, backed up by another 1,023 from the 80s. You have massive anchor weights holding down the floor—37 Rolling Stones records spanning 1964's England's Newest Hit Makers up to Steel Wheels in 1989, 19 Daryl Hall & John Oates titles, and 16 Elvis joints. The spine of this collection was built in the golden age of big-budget studio sound, where Ludwig and Grundman were carving deadwax day in and day out. It is a massive, sprawling archive that knows exactly what it wants from rock and pop history, even when it wanders out into solitary oddities like Kodály chamber pieces that nobody else in the network even owns.

The Clerk's take

The roast

Rupert Hine is on 91 of your records. Zero solo spines.

Ninety-one fucking credits producing everyone else's records across your shelves, and not one single copy of Immunity sitting under his own name. The man gave his life to the board and you left him completely out in the cold. Fix that shit.

Today's read

Bob Ludwig touched 125 of your records.

One hundred twenty-five titles cut or mastered by Ludwig. The man's initials are practically etched into the plastic of your living room floor. You are living inside his low-end whether you realize it or not.

The win

Thirteen Hall & Oates records, two away from total lockdown.

Thirteen albums deep from Abandoned Luncheonette in '73 to Possession Obsession in '85. You're literally just Bigger Than Both Of Us and X-Static away from sealing the whole damn vault. That's heavy dedication.

Buried treasure

Zoltán Kodály is gathering dust. Spin it.

Zoltán Kodály — Chamber Music 1.

Chamber Music 1. sitting untouched for three months with zero spins. Exactly one physical owner in the entire Gatefold network—literally just you. Brittle, dark, cerebral classical. Drop the needle on it tonight.
