The quandary now is where to go to find a collection of Jerry Garcia's oeuvre with Merl Saunders or to find Soultrane on vinyl without having to take out a second mortgage or trolling online until your fingers turn blue. Well, record collecting has just turned a corner...right here... Concord Music Group welcomes you to The Collector's Corner.

    Everything is here, from Carolina bluesman Pink Anderson (whose name inspired Syd Barrett to christen his little English quartet Pink Floyd) to Albert King paying tribute to that other King, Elvis Presley; to the classic comprehensive Miles Davis and John Coltrane box sets from the Prestige vaults.

    Audiophiles and rarity hunters will also discover the bliss of having Waltz for Debby and Creedence Clearwater Revival's Chronicle on vinyl is no longer relegated to the labyrinth of online auctions. In The Collector's Corner, visitors can peruse through titles available in the venerated vinyl format.

    In addition to great collectibles, each month The Collector's Corner offers reviews, pointers and suggestions from experts and Concord Music Group staffers. They'll share the must-have collectibles, from the historic to the bizarre.
