While
most people are downloading and listening to music on ipods and
through online streaming sites like Pandora and Spotify these days —
there’s nothing like spending a day in a record store.
Created
in 2007 at a gathering of independent record store owners, National Record Store Day is intended to “celebrate and spread the word
about the unique culture surrounding over 700 independently owned
record stores in the US and thousands of similar stores
internationally,” according to RecordStoreDay.com.
Held
every third Saturday in April, participating independent record
stores across the country offer special vinyl and CD releases and
other items are made exclusively for the day.
The
first collector ever shot for Dust and Grooves, Joel Oliveira, is
seen holding a Cem Karaca 7-inch record. Originally from
Brazil, Oliveira moved to New York City 12 years ago, starting as a
shoeshine boy in Grand Central Station. His love for music and vinyl
gave him a real hope and purpose in life. He is the guru of
psychedelic Brazilian music, and is the owner of “Tropicalia in
Furs” record shop in New York City’s East Village.
