METRO DETROIT — Cue those turntables: It’s time to kick out the jams. On April 22, local independent record stores will open up shop for Record Store Day 2023. Record Store Day, held internationally, was launched in 2007 to give employees and customers the chance to gather and celebrate the independent record store culture. In addition, record companies release new

music or re-release albums on vinyl not available elsewhere. That could include picture discs and LPs from bands no longer together. “Record Store Day started out when vinyl was making a comeback,” said Davey Taylor, who with wife Lisa Taylor owns Weirdsville Records at 61 Macomb Place in Mount Clemens. “It’s about helping the momand-pop shops. Sometimes you get a lot of new customers that have never been to the store or new people who just got a record player.” See RECORDS on page 2A

HARRISON TOWNSHIP — Old, flat, unused and expensive: so says the Harrison Township Board of Trustees about a strip of land the township owns. At the March 27 board meeting, trustees voted to hire the services of attorney Robert Huth to help work through the process of abandoning the Harrison Park Landing, a stretch of land between South River Road and Riverside Bay Court and parallel to the northern end of Emerick Road Park. Township Supervisor Ken Verkest said the strip was given to the township when the Harrison Park neighborhood was built. “When land was platted so it could be resold, it was common back at that time to provide access to the river because there was this notion that there was this universal need for access to water,” Verkest said. “Who would want a piece of land if they couldn’t access the river?”
