In 2012, nostalgia is everywhere.
While we surge forward with technological advancements dominating our
media and communication, we simultaneously gobble up all things
old-school. Yet, with record stores closing here and there, including
the recent closing of New Haven's Cutler's, it is clear that
nostalgia is not enough to save the old record stores.
Mike Papa recognized that fact years
ago, and thanks to his store's flexibility, Merle's Record Rack can
celebrate 50 years of memorabilia, posters, concert tickets, and
vinyl.
