The Record Raid at New Orleans Jazz Market is taking place on Saturday, October 1 from 10a-5p. The good folks from the Raid met up with one of their vendors and former WWOZ DJ Jivin' Gene at his home to get a walk through his vast record collection-- both what he'll have for sale and his private treasures. Jivin' Gene was a 'OZ DJ for 32 years, from 1982 to 2013.
