Re: Happy Birthday, Joe.
Watching the movie about him once, I tried to figure that out (silly, I know) and I think I reckoned about 30,000 on view in the basement. Of course Joe's collection is as much quality as quantity.
I wonder if he's still able to find the kind of discs that he seeks anymore, or if the collection is now more or less stsgnant.
