Mr. Peabody "The Peabody Trademark Hour #001 w/ Mark, Mike & L-Genius"

Industry insiders associate the name Mr. Peabody with quality, hard to find music. Your favorite DJ's and producers buy their dusties from them ("Disco Spectrum" anyone?). Mr. Peabody the record store has been a Chicago Southside institution for over 15 years - just being in that store for 10 minutes is a lesson in itself!

Most of what Mr. Peabody the DJs play in their sets come from the era spanning from the 70s to 80s and specializing in the obscure, but browsing around their amazing store I also came across a really nice selection of Jazz, old school Hip Hop, and rock 12" singles, so don't base their stock solely on what they play out. Here is the link to the store website. I would imagine the turnover for their stock to be quite quick, so giving them a call or emailing them your want lists might be good idea.

Here is the first volume in what I hope is many podcasts to come. Enjoy!



And make sure to pick this up if you haven't already.
