Oz

Basement-dweller at The Music Inn. Collector of sound.

S1E4 - Susie introduces Midge to Oz and Virgil, and helps her to buy a comedy record from their private collection.

S1E6 - Virgil and Oz listen back to an unsourced tape of Midge’s first gig, and decide to publish it under the title “Mrs. X at the Gaslight.”

S2E3 - Strapped for cash, Susie goes to the Music Inn to sell a rare Charley Patton record to Oz and Virgil. While they vet it, she browses the store and discovers the “Mrs. X at the Gaslight” record. Susie shouts at them for distributing unauthorized audio of her client, and they run away.

SUSIE: These guys are insane collectors of sound. Whatever's not in a mainstream store, they seek out and find.
MIDGE: My God, political speeches, concerts. “Mark Twain presenting at Royal Albert Hall, 1904.” Did they even have recording devices then?
OZ: This was an early application… a, uh, articulated stylus incising…
SUSIE: Bup-bup-bup. Nerd alert.
– S1E4

OZ: She should be wearing gloves.
VIRGIL: I know.
– S1E4

SUSIE: Could you hurry it up, guys? I got stuff to do.
OZ: Look, we pride ourselves on our quality control, so we go over everything with a fine-tooth comb.
