I am so excited to share my conversation with Jesse Rifkin, the author of This Must Be The Place: Music, Community, and Vanished Spaces in New York City and owner of Walk on the Wild Side Tours NYC. Jesse and I discussed his book writing process, the current state of NYC music scenes, and how music spaces are vital to the city.
