With the proliferation of mp3 blogs by people desperate to be more like--for instance--me, and hang the imprimatur of a Google-approved music publication like this one on their doors, it was only a matter of time before the archivist geeks (in a good way) and their vinyl stacks found their appropriate home on the CyberWeb. A preferred place to start: Weirdmusic (www.weirdmusic.com), not just for its growing collection of odd vinyl rips for your perusal, but its extensive link-list. Want some rare, ahem, "ethnic" music from a far off land? Want to hear the latest in experimental intruments--a 42-string bass, maybe? Oddmusic (www.oddmusic.com) is your place. Whistling records? A whole site (www.whistlingrecords.com). It's a crazy world out there, my tender vittles. Bring an umbrella.
