Our February show was fabulous and busy all through the day, and so nice to see we are getting more ladies coming to the shows, along with our wonderful women vendors—and it’s Women’S History Month.

Some sad news—we lost another great singer to soon this month—Eric Carmen, the lead singer of the great 70s group, The Raspberries. Remember how scandalous, “Go All the Way” was?

See below for some great items we saw at last month’s show. Our great vendors will be bringing even more goodies this month.

Not only were there great TV shows back in the day, but some very famous musicians and composers wrote, arranged, and conducted the theme songs, such as Earle Hagen and Lalo Shifrin:

A great book about a trailblazing, Black artist, Sister Rosetta Sharp!

Someone found this great child’s Disney guitar from the animated film, “Cars!”

Lots more fun finds!

Never seen this cute, mini-records from the Depression before, called Little Wonder!
I wonder if they were the precursors to 45s!

A very vintage record player!

A fun Peter Sellers album!

An audio 45 version of a famous children’s book!

We were sorry to hear about the passing of a true legend, a fierce survivor, Queen of Soul, Tina Turner. She is truly was the best!

Last month, we had another great visit from Lonesome Dave Fisher and his trio, including his very talented son. They performed three sets of music, entertaining everyone in attendance. The show was packed with great vendors and shoppers alike, along with some interesting finds!

Spring is here! Lot of deals are blooming at our next show, Sunday, April 16!

Spring is finally here! Deals will be blooming SUNDAY, April 16, at the Arbutus Volunteer Department Fire Hall in Arbutus from 9 am – 3 pm. Admission is FREE and parking is FREE! All our great vendors will be there with tons of fun music items.

Last month’s show was a great success and Janet and Chrissy were still in the St. Patty’s spirit putting on the green!

It’s always great to welcome new vendors and especially the younger generation that discover and carry on the love of classic music. Alex (with his gal) is an Eastern Shore native and got into collecting records while living in Seattle around 2013-14. His friend worked at Easy Street Records, one of the great records stores in the area, and that’s how he got hooked! He’s glad to be back in Maryland and is living in Ellicott City. He said her will be doing more shows!

A whole selection of great Dolly Parton albums – SIGNED!

In the spirit of spring and Easter we found some classic, favorite bunnies (and some cool cats and a dog!)

Here are some other great finds from last month (yes you can still find a record player–or two!)

We have sprung forward and it’s time for our next show! Join us on the Sunday, March 19 of St. Patty’s Day weekend.

Spring is just around the corner and so is our March show! Come by Sunday, March 19 at the Arbutus Volunteer Fire Hall from 9 am – 3 pm. Admission is FREE and parking is FREE! Don’t forget to bring the green. St. Patty’s Day comes before the show but there is still plenty of golden music treasure at the end of that rainbow offered by our wonderful vendors.

We had a really busy show last month and Janet was as colorful as ever as she always is and great clothes, helping customers and making some announcements.

Our very own vendor and announcer, Derek, made a super cool trade for this snazzy piece of equipment! It’s new, even USB, but looks SO vintage!

Remembering Burt Bacharach, who sadly just passed, and one of his own fabulous albums, Reach Out, besides the many he did with other artists.

Some VERY cool and clever packaging design for some Beatles and Tina Turner albums!

This Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers collection has is all – vinyl, CDs, DVDs, Blu-ray, and more!

Buttons galore and…

…and SO much more wonderful finds of all kinds below!

Happy New Year! We are so excited for our first show of 2023 on Sunday, JANUARY 15!

We had a great show last month with lots of people coming to shop. Some festive folks from The December show!

Below are many of the great things we spotted, including some very lunch boxes, buttons, vinyl (of course), Beatles items, even a record player and some vintage toys were for sale—and of course Christmas albums. We always remember Elvis in January as well. It’s time to start thinking about LOVE and Valentine’s Day coming up since our next show will be after that holiday.
