This week’s guest In the Flamingo Lounge, Bob "The Record Guy" Paxon is the person most responsible for my love, and familiarity of local music. He is one of the most knowledgeable music collectors in Western New York, particularly with local, Buffalo-area records. He was a regular contributor to WNYFM, a virtual museum of the music culture of the Buffalo/Niagara region of Western New York and contributed a feature on local 45 records from the 50’s and 60’s entitled “45 Fridays”.

He was also a member of Grim Reaper, the band that eventually evolved into Aunt Helen, the Toys and the New Toys, becoming one of Buffalo’s earliest punk/new wave bands.

Bob joined Rockabilly Greg on January 3, 2024 for a great conversation on local musicians and records.
