Dig Ye Must
Reap the rewards of fervent crate-diggers today. Devoted record bin hounds like D.J. Jazzy Jay, Lord Finesse, Miss Shing-a-Ling and Rockin’ Rob will spin their rarest tracks at an outdoor party in Harlem. Afterward, stop by one of the neighborhood’s most beloved and now endangered fixtures, the Record Shack, and do a little digging of your own. Look for “Group Doueh: Guitar Music From the Western Sahara,” a vinyl-only compilation that is filled with “casual but brilliantly complicated performances,” says Ben Ratliff.
Digger’s Delight, 4 p.m.-8 p.m. St. Nicholas Park Plaza, 135th Street and St. Nicholas Avenue. Record Shack, 274 West 125th Street (Frederick Douglass Boulevard), (212) 866-1600.
