I traded the shirt off my back once for a record at a stereo store.
I was doing hot fuel testing at an automotive proving grounds in Arizona. This was around 1993. I worked all day at the proving grounds in my golf shirt with the Ford and Bosch logos embroidered on it. I was taking the Red Eye back to Detroit that night out of Las Vegas. With some time to kill that evening I browsed around a stereo shop that I found in town. Got to see some Apogees in person for the first time there. The store owner mentioned he liked my shirt because he sold Blaupunkt radios (Bosch) and he was a Ford guy. I spotted a Mobile Fidelity recording of Alan Parsons Tales of Mystery and Imagination in his rack ($21 back then) and I offered to trade my shirt for that record. He gladly accepted so I went to my car, grabbed a clean shirt out of my luggage and gave him my dirty sweaty shirt for that record. Just played that record again last night. I’m guessing the record has easily outlasted the shirt.
