Here is your Record Store Day edition of Shanty Town. In this episode, we celebrate the magic from the dollar bins of record stores and flea markets everywhere with an all vinyl reggae set of 45's and 12 inches I've purchased for a dollar or less. We also have a brief interview with the owner of Tiger's Reggae Hut (1092 Nostrand Ave out in Lefferts Gardens, Brooklyn). Salute to all the local record shops (the few that are still around) here in NYC and across the country - and we should support them more than once a year - because you don't know what you got 'til its gone!
