Springnet 349 - Joe Bryson - Inner Sanctum - 8"Condo Joe" Bryson, who started Austin's famed Inner Sanctum Records, threw a 40th Anniversary party at 501 Studios, Austin, TX on the afternoon and evening of Sunday, August 15, 2010.
In 1970, college student and entrepreneur Joe Bryson bought Phil's Record Store, at W. 24th and Rio Grande Streets, and called it Inner Sanctum Records, after the 1940s radio show. The store relocated to a large, old house at 504 W. 24th Street, just off "The Drag" (Guadalupe St.), near the University of Texas at Austin.
Bryson recruited fellow music mavens to keep the business running. James "Cowboy" Cooper, Gary Barnes, "Big Al" Ragle, Richard Dorsett, Rick Moore, Kirby McDaniel and Linda Nozik all worked at the store.
These days Joe Bryson is a Realtor who specializes in Austin downtown condos. See http://spring.net/condojoe for a complete list of party videos and for more of these videos search for "springnet" on itunes, youtube, blip.tv, etc and then subscribe to the springnet channel.
