What this episode covers

In this special edition of Jazz & More Conversations, Carlaya sits down with longtime blues broadcaster and record-store owner Dr. Brian, the voice behind more than two decades of blues programming on 91.5 FM. Brian takes listeners on a nostalgic ride through his early radio days—from broadcasting out of a tiny closet-sized studio in the old UNLV Student Union to spinning DAT tapes at multiple locations before landing in Greenspun Hall.Now the proud co-owner of Vegas Vinyl Records, Brian shares how a lifelong passion for collecting music turned into a brick-and-mortar business he runs with his wife, Lisa. He reflects on the joy of connecting with artists, serving the community, and running a shop where music lovers rediscover the magic of vinyl.With Record Store Day Black Friday just around the corner, Brian breaks down the history behind the nationwide event, the limited-edition releases fans can expect, and what makes this celebration of independent record stores so special. Vegas Vinyl Records will open early at 8 a.m., complete with coffee and donuts for the dedicated collectors lined up at the door.Brian wraps the conversation with warm holiday wishes and an invitation to enjoy great music, great food, and great company this season — with plenty of vinyl spinning in the background.
