Best vinyl hunting? We can all hope? James Bennett WOW

[Blackpoolsoul]

I have been involved in a wonderful thread with some proper knowledgable folks

Anyway and I hope none of you have seen this (I apologise if you have and please direct me if it has been on here before)

Please watch the (wish it was much longer) video embedded in this link, the place is amazing and I suspect we all want to be this guy searching through.

Sadly this was 10 years ago and the store is no more (new owners)

According to Discogs James Bennett, the owner (he even sings).

Producer and songwriter based in Jackson, Mississippi who recorded blues, gospel, and R&B acts for his LaJam Records, J&B Records, Traction Records, Retta's Records, MT Records, Big Thigh Records, and “T” labels.

Johnnie Mae Matthews chief writer.....you tell me, this made my day.

Anyone know what happened to the amazing Mr Bennett ?

Thanks to Graham Finch who sent me in this direction !!!!
