RIP Music Man Murray. Watch a Doc About Him and His Precious Record Collection

Alan Cross 0 Comments

Murray Gershenz loved records. By the time he passed away last week at the age of 91, he had close to have a million of them, all stored at his record shop in LA.  No wonder they called him Music Man Murray.

Earlier this year, he managed to finally sell them.  It took several 52-foot long trailers to haul away the collection.  Check out this documentary on the man and his records.
