thinking back to record hunting days going back to the 1970's, i never thought that specific interactions with Sam would become keepsake memories...just took it for granted and looked at it as a Yonge St shopping experience with the owner helping a customer...usually saw that big smile close up but sometimes he was a bit grumbly when i'd ask waaay too many questions about this and that and this and that, lol...he would say "look again, maybe it's misfiled...customers don't always put things back in their place, you know"...he was a busy guy especially when i was there on new release days and CHUM chart publish days...for 3 years, i went to school around the corner so during spares (and non-spares
) i saw lots of A+A, Sam's and Music World...all within a stone's throw
he last helped me back in the early 90's...located a depression era Bunny Berigan track ...it became the first dance at my wedding years later...thank you, Sam
btw, WHO CAN NAME SOME OF THE RECORDS SEEN HERE? (other than "Lightfoot" "Back Here on Earth" and "Don Quixote")
