[Missouri-l] Accessible World presents Books and Beyond Sept. 22, 2010

[Nancy Lynn]

Newswire:

Would you like to spend an hour listening to and participating in a 
discussion of vinyl records? Yes, you read correctly, vinyl records. Joe 
Schwab, proprietor of Euclid Records in St. Louis, Missouri, will be our 
guest. In love with music, he started working in a record store as a 
teenager and has never looked back. A record store owner for 28 years, Joe 
sells both vinyl and CDs totaling a million dollars in sales annually. As CD 
sales drop, Schwab has been seeing an increase in the sales of vinyl by 
buyers experiencing many classics for the very first time. Why are they 
finding vinyl so attractive? Joe says, "They love the sound and artwork." 
Sales of turntables are growing, bringing even more new customers to Euclid 
Records. Forward thinking, Joe Schwab saw the value of selling online in the 
early 90s. To show just how significant this is, he says this predates the 
beginning of Amazon.com. On Sept. 1, Joe opened his first branch 700 miles 
away in New Orleans, because "they needed a record store and didn't have 
one." Planning to open more branches all over the country, Joe loves talking 
about music. Local bands play in his St. Louis store. Their music is 
recorded on 45s on the Euclid record label. If you love music, are looking 
for music you just can't find, or wish to talk about the days of vinyl, Joe 
Schwab and this show is the one for you. Start time will be 8 p.m. eastern 
time in the Books And Beyond Room on Accessibleworld.org. Please arrive a 
few minutes early for this spectacular guest.
