Record digging tips for Sault Ste. Marie

A few things worth knowing before you work through Sault Ste. Marie's record stores:

• Ask to play it at Sunrise Records. Good shops have turntables for exactly this. If they won't let you listen, that's information too.
• Sleeves matter for value. Original inner sleeves, inserts, posters — completeness counts. A bare record in a generic sleeve is worth less.
• Learn to spot reissues. Reissues are cheaper and often sound great. Originals cost more for the history. Know which you're paying for.
• Note the shop's specialties. Every shop leans somewhere — soul, punk, jazz, classical. Find the lean that matches yours, then dig the others anyway.
