Music Is Devo

Todd Martens lays out a nice post on A brief history of the album's recent decline in value at the LA Times blog. Todd was the indies reporter at Billboard for a long while and is now a producer for the LAT. He briefly interviewed me for a Billboard story on the Best Buy ruckus back in 2006. Thankfully, we haven't seen a repeat of that scenario, though the thought of Best Buy and Fred Meyer (Kroger/Fry's) selling vinyl does produce an involuntary gag reflex. Can we just have one little crumb to ourselves, do you think?
