Fe sys PAZ 2S by Spencer Toyne As your probably well aware, the recording industry is revolutionizing the medium through which we listen to music with the digital compact disk or C.D. Far outperforming our dear old records, C.D.’s boast the com- plete elimination of surface noise and distortion, to offer the highest possible standard in music listen- ing. While most record shops are stocking their shelves with this new sound technology, there is one place which in fact stocks its shel- ves exclusively with that of an ear- lier era: the 78 r.p.m record. Perhaps it’s just nostalgia talking, but many beleave the surface niose for which 78’s are known, seems to hold a certain intrinsic quality for the music its self; actually inhanc- ing the effect of these recordings on the listener. M.C. Productions, owned and opperated by Micky Clark, is noth- ing short of an archive of 78 records, containing music dating from 1910 to the 1940’s. The con- cept of M.C. Productions, though quite simple, is rather unique. Taking music from his personnal record collection, Clark tapes it in pakages of various styles and artists for retail sale. Since his collection numbers about 15 000 records - encompassing music from the big- gest to the most obscure names in Jazz, Blues, Swing, Bebop, and Ragtime - it is safe to say that Clark can fulfil even the most particular of musical demands. He also does custom taping to insure this. the Other Press Wanna form a band?! Guitarist looking for other people to jam with - for FUN!!

Productions an Archive for 78 Record Buffs a Mick Clark’s interest in this era of music was cultivated at the early age of nine through listening to the collection of 30 to 40 78’s his parents owned. When asked what attracted him to this music when he was so young, Clark simply replied, "It’s just the spirit of it." From that time on, Clark could often be found at second hand stores and swap meets in search of early recordings. Because of the lack of demand for 78’s, he was able to buy them very inexpensive- ly; and so his collection burgioned into what it is today. It has been 26 years since he stared collecting, and over that time, Clark has become somewhat of an historian of the early record- ing industry. Although hé was born in 1954, he mentions the names, dates, places and other particulars pertinent to his field of expertese as the opportunity Micky Clark has if he were actually there himself. forged for himself which has Originally, he soldhistapeson Provided him with an facinating a part time basis while working ata Career in a field of work he loves. number of various other jobs and studying music for a year at the University of B.C. Eventually, he made enough money to quit his day jobs and go into full-time buisness for himself. At first he worked out of his home, selling tapes to res- taurants and cafes. Then in January of 1985, he opened a booth at Broadway Melody. Several months later he opened his own location in the Gastown Antique Village. He now opperates at 442 Cordova at Holmer in Gastown, Vancouver. Many students today, face a very competitive job market in which a limited number of oppor- tunities exist, particularly in music.
