Stairway to Record Heaven

It's a long way up but worth the climb.  At the top you'll find Charlemagne Records (since 1977).  Vintage records and tapes galore.  Last weekend I made my first visit with Cincinnati DJ and record enthusiast Jay Gilbert ( aka Uncle Jay Explains the News).  He had a great time flipping through the stacks while I took pictures.

BADP on the Road.......Cincinnati!

I spent a terrific three days last week in Cincinnati, Ohio with my Paris amie Mary and husband Jay Gilbert. We had some fun!! Mary showed me all over her beautiful city, and I must share some of the photos from that trip with you over the next week or so. Today, the nostalgic and well preserved Esquire Theatre . Built in 1911, it now features independent, foreign and mainstream films on six screens. It's located in the charming Clifton neighborhood.
