Hi Martyn, thank you for your wonderful memories. How did you find the wall? I was showing somebody the videos today of Tim Robbins and Paul Simon and it made me sad that it's gone forever, I so glad it's here at least.

Hi ,visited Manny's many times when I was in NYC(worked on the QE2-1982-86)
As a young guy,I was mesmerized by all the photos of my 'hero's',all the instruments, & the thought that there could be famous people in the store at the same time as me.....
Hi, Ian, and many thanks. Yes, of course this would be way back before both our times. But I just thought you'd have heard about the store, being in the family. Attached is a photo of a mute I own that has a Manny's store sticker to verify th...

from Michael Gladstone about his "Schlepper" shirt
Hi Sandi,
It makes me smile the way I felt when Henry gave me my first "Schlepper" shirt.
I have to laugh when I notice people speaking about "Abruptness" at Manny's. Being Jewish and from New York I guess I understood it better than most. I begged for every "Schlepper" shirt I ever got. I might have been an important Road Manager in my head but to Henry I was just a Schlepper, basically a putz with the good luck to be in the Music Business. He always treated me like a Nephew that he could not r… Continue

Mute from Manny's Forsythe Street Store
Hi, Ian, and many thanks. Yes, of course this would be way back before both our times. But I just thought you'd have heard about the store, being in the family. Attached is a photo of a mute I own that has a Manny's store sticker to verify the Forsyth Street store. This is so strange! how no one remembers… Continue

- Hi Sandi,
We all owe you a huge vote of thanks for putting this together. It makes me smile the way I felt when Henry gave me my first "Schlepper" shirt.
I have to laugh when I notice people speaking about "Abruptness" at Manny's. Being Jewish and from New York I guess I understood it better than most. I begged for every "Schlepper" shirt I ever got. I might have been an important Road Manager in my head but to Henry I was just a Schlepper, basically a putz with the good luck to be in the Music Business. He always treated me like a Nephew that he could not resist the opportunity to give a hard time to. I almost cry thinking of when my apartment burned down with my Gibson LG1 in it and then when Blood Sweat and Tears sent me down like a kid in a candy store to pick out a replacement at Manny's, Henry went into the back and brought out one of the last of the Martin D-28's made with Brazilian rosewood and said 'Here Kid, see if you like this one". He showed his love by giving you a great deal, the best products, and of course, a hard time in jest.
To a New Yorker like me there was only one Deli, that's Katz's, and only One Music Store that's Manny's. Manny, Henry, Stuart and all of the other members of the Goldrich family were and always will be giants. We knew the names of the gear. They knew the legends behind the gear. They were the Mensches and we were the Putz's that they lovingly allowed into their family business.
Thanks again and keep making those great videos. I hope to meet you sometime when I am in New York or if your in LA give a holler.

- Sandi, this clearly is a labor of love for you. Even though you're a California girl, you've captured the essence of the New York music scene and music history with this site. I'm a native New Yorker, currently in Virginia, but I feel right at home looking at this stuff. Thanks for the invite!

Kevin Odegard said… - Hey Sandi, I'll check out the New Yorker. Your timing might just work, as Bob is actively out promoting "Together Through Life."
Jeff Rosen at East-West Touring there is the man to ask about this.
I'll get you his number. - k

Josh Alan Friedman said… - Well, I always suspected even many stars were treated with equal abruptness. So thanks for alerting me to John Sebastian's testimonial. (Actually, Manny's was a beacon of good manners, compared to Sam Ash next door.)

- Sandi, I have a tremendous amount of photos from the Outings. Celebrities, Henry with celebrities, musicians, etc. BUT...all traditional photos..non-digital.
I have fond memoies of the store and how Henry befriended me from the start. I even have the original receipts for a VOX amp in the '60's. And yes, I know Elliot. We worked together many times throughout he heyday of NY. Ask Hughie. Regards, Jack Cavari
