if you come in here you're gonna talk about music …

Written by Mandy Spivey | October 20, 2015

Greg Ellis at Groover's Paradise

“They can do all that but they can’t come in and ask the guy behind the counter which Paul McCartney record is best … if you come in here you’re gonna talk about music and you’re going to get engaged — I’ll leave you alone while you’re digging through — but when you bring it up here we’re gonna talk about what you’re gonna buy. And that’s what keeps me coming to work. I like doing that, I like talking about music, I like being that guy, and I hope people in the store appreciate that.”
