Doug and Annie Gaddy, owners
fortherecords@cs.com


This is the third year FTR has exhibited at RMAF.  Each year the booth has been quite popular.  Conversations are lively, crowds are steady and sales are brisk.


The thing that sets FTR apart from many other vintage record dealers is that Doug has been passionately investigating records and music for over 22 years.  His commitment shows in three main domains.  First, he has a commitment to discovering hidden gems-- records that are nearly lost to many collectors.  Second, he has a commitment to knowing as much about as many records in as many genres as his brain will allow.  And, third, he delivers quality items and personal service to his customers.  The FTR booth offers an excellent compliment and balance to Chad Kassem and Acoustic Sounds's reissue vinyl offerings.
