Hot wax: Crate-digging culture in Cincinnati

For devotees, records carry tangible, distinctive personalities. An old price tag still glued to the shrink-wrap reveals where the record originated; the cover art on the jacket tells its own story. At Another Part of the Forest in Over-the-Rhine, Mike Markiewicz carries a little bit of everything, from King Records' classics to soundtracks from Sesame Street. This week, Soapbox takes a spin.
