record industry



As the suits have attenuated the choices available in mainstream popular 
music there has been an incredible flourishing of music produced. In 1975 
I 
was doing radio and playing as much ethnic stuff as I could get,a typical 
record store would have maybe 5 or 6 albums in their International section 
,something celtic,maybe something Greek or Spanish ,maybe a Belly Dance 
for 
your Husband record and some Polka or German Beer Hall Songs,maybe an 
Edith 
Piaff record.I used to order Nonesuch stuff whenever I could come up with 
the money,and comb used record stores ,thrift stores and borrow tapes from 
 
the university library. These days you can get hundreds of  new World 
Music 
recordings a year,and from every culture on the planet. that's just one 
category.Amoeba recrods in SF must ahev 10,000 electronic selctions
