It wasn't moldy. It was… perfect. Row after row of sleeveless vinyl, each one gleaming black as obsidian. No labels, no writing on the dead wax. Just records. He pulled one out.

Leo almost laughed. A free crate on Beale Street? It was probably full of shattered Herb Alpert records and moldy Christmas albums. But something made him nudge it with his toe. It was heavy. Full. It wasn't moldy

The rules were simple: three rounds, fifteen minutes each. Any genre. The crowd votes by dancing. No labels, no writing on the dead wax

Leo won. Obviously. Unanimously. The crowd carried him to the bar on their shoulders. They chanted his name. He was a god for forty-five minutes.

He fell to his knees. The records in the ghost crate had given him victory, but they had cost him his history. Every record he’d saved for. Every dig through dusty garage sales. The crackle on side B of that old Blowfly record. The skip on the second track of his first 12-inch single. All of it. Traded for a moment of borrowed glory.

But as the night wore on and the alcohol flowed, a cold knot tightened in his stomach. He had won. But he hadn't earned it. The crate wasn't his.
