Mike Duquette

Michael Duquette (Founder) was fascinated with catalog music ever since he discovered there was more than one version of John Williams' soundtrack to E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial. A 2009 graduate of Seton Hall University with a B.A. in journalism, Mike paired his profession with his passion through The Second Disc, one of the first sites to focus on all reissue labels great and small. His passion for reissues turned into a career, with bylines on catalog at Discogs, City Pages and Ultimate Prince and credits on titles including the Grammy-winning 'Squeeze Box: The Complete Works of "Weird Al" Yankovic.' Born and raised in New Jersey, Mike lives in Astoria, Queens with an ever-expanding collection of music.

    Glad to see Wounded Bird is still putting out new reissues. I wonder what happened to all their Seals & Crofts titles? I snoozed too long in picking those up. Now they are out of print.

    They’d be 20 CDs of “Aretha’s oft-overlooked early days on Columbia” for every one compilation of her Atlantic or Arista material.
