Shrevie: Ok, now ask me what’s on the flip side.

Beth: Why?

Shrevie: Just, just ask me what’s on the flip side, OK?

Beth: What is on the flip side?

Shrevie: Hey, Hey, Hey, 1958. Specialty Records.

[Beth nods blankly]

Shrevie: See? You don’t ask me things like that, do you? No! You never ask me what’s on the flip side.

Beth: No! Because I don’t give a shit. Shrevie, who cares about what’s on the flip side about the record?

Shrevie: I do! Every one of my records means something! The label, the producer, the year it was made. Who was copying whose style… who’s expanding on that, don’t you understand? When I listen to my records they take me back to certain points in my life, OK? Just don’t touch my records, ever! You! The first time I met you? Modell’s sister’s high school graduation party, right? 1955. And Ain’t That A Shame was playing when I walked into the door!
