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
