We never locked out doors back then and just knocked and walked in. Margaret and her good friend Dorothea Carter, an African American, social worker at BOCES, took my sister Beverly and I to hear the Young Peoples concert at Lincoln Center.

When you saved ten, you were entitled redeem them and pick a free 45 of your choice. I thought it was a cool little promotion, and redeemed many coupons. Thanks Hastings Record Shop for the memories.<br /><br />Bob RussellAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226619540036514458.post-29718231052023688282009-05-19T11:01:00.000-04:002009-05-19T11:01:00.000-04:00As a young kid I had become a fan of Spike Jones a...As a young kid I had become a fan of Spike Jones and would buy his 78 records from Margaret when the store was on Spring St. She was always patient with me and would play them for me so I could make a decision. Because of the hill you had to go up several steps to enter the store. Later when I was buying the latest rock n roll records I would get them from her on Main St. Even now when I return to Hastings for a visit, if I go down Spring St. I think of Margaret and the Hastings Record Shop.
