In some positive retail news, Manhattan45 recently opened at 220 E. 10th St. between First Avenue and Second Avenue.
The small shop offers a finely curated selection of dance music from labels such as — cutting and pasting from their website! — Pinkman, Crosstown Rebels, Body N' Deep, Curtis Electronix, Rekids, Defected, Glitterbox, Hot Creations, Kompakt, Moustache, Nervous, Vault Wax, etc.
Manhattan45 is open 1-8 p.m. Tuesday through Sunday. You can find them online here ... and on Instagram here.
And they are directly across the street from Limited to One, the collectible record shop ... so you can make a vinyl afternoon of it on the block.

Reader mailbag: What can I do with my record collection?
A longtime EVG reader writes in...
"Do you know any person or place that would still be interested in records? We're moving and the records can't come with us, and we have decades of stuff ... there's little if any monetary value to some of the records, but someone somewhere may want them."
The reader figures there are at least 500 LPs (pictured above), probably "mostly 1960s & some '70s and some guitar stuff." There are also some 78s.
So… Any record stores around here still buying some vinyl?
Separately, perhaps you are interested in a few of them? The reader is happy to just give them to a good home. Here's the reader's email if you'd like to know more about the records.

We often get reader queries ... asking for help with, say, donating clothes or books ... or finding an East Village-based caterer... If you have a question for the masses, then try the EV Grieve email...

[Updated] Someone is unloading a shitload of (mostly) free records now on East 2nd Street
On East Second Street just east of Second Avenue near Anthology Film Archives, per EVG reader Stephanie.
An EVG Facebook friend has more: "The workers are trying to make some cash by charging a buck for the good stuff but most of it all is free. Boxes and boxes of Stones, Beatles, Beach Boys, Hendrix, Badfinger etc etc. I got a fancy gatefold EP by the Dentists."
Anyone know more about who these belonged too?

Dang. Nice to see this... Oh, if you see a copy of "Zinc Alloy and the Hidden Riders of Tomorrow," please put it aside for me.
