The Ripple Effect: The Music Commentary Radio Show  

This Field Report is a little unusual in that it’s not so much based on catching a live performance, but more focused on a little musical adventure that I had while spending some time on the East Coast. Much like the record buying trip that Racer and I had in March, this trip to New York was more about what kind of odd ball and nifty nuggets I could come across. That’s not to say that there isn’t going to be a report on some live music . . . trust me, there’s live music in the future. I did travel by foot, bus, and train to catch one of my favorite bands, but that report will be addressed in the second part of this report. For the first portion, I want to share with you some of the sights and sounds that I discovered in New York City, primarily the offices of an influential record label and a few record stores of note. Oh, Waveriders . . . make sure you bring enough spending cash and suitcase room. You’re bound to find some stuff that you can’t live without.
