Jackie’s typical behaviour at the record bins involves inspecting first the album cover (especially the playlist) then the vinyl condition then, a while later, repeating both and sometimes, very rarely, tucking the record under her arm with a still 50-50 chance the record goes back where she found it.
None of that this time. I heard a low gasp and then she shoved the record to me. “Take this. Now.” She wasn’t wrong. November 1964, Sonny Terry and Brownie McGhee. Sublime.
