Springnet 342 - Joe Bryson - Inner Sanctum -part 1

"Condo Joe" Bryon, who started Austin's legendary Inncr Sanctum Recod Shop, threw a party on East 5th Street on the afternoon of Sunday, August 15, 2010. n 1970, college student/entrepreneur Joe Bryson bought Phil's Record Store, which sat in a shotgun location at W. 24th and Rio Grande Streets, and re-christened it Inner Sanctum Records, named after the 1940s radio show. The store would soon relocate to a large, old house at 504 W. 24th Street, just off "The Drag" (Guadalupe St.), near the University of Texas at Austin. This building also housed Aunt Sally's Bookstore, The Leather Bench and other businesses, as well as the offices of the political magazine The Texas Observer (when not running the store, Bryson would often visit the Observer offices in the presence of the late Molly Ivins and Kaye Northcott).
