    TWANGSTOLGIA: Due to overwhelming demand, this week on the TwangTrust, your ol’ award-winning pal Stu brings you another episode of Winnipeg Record Store History!

    This continuing irregular series explores the history of Winnipeg’s coolest old, defunct record stores. We delve into the people who worked there, the records that were bought there and the musical culture of the time to determine just why those old places were so cool. Feel free to call in with your own favourite record store story.

    AND… Next week on the TwangTrust! CJUM on CKUW!
