Yeah, I remembered seeing a headline about her back then, but it was a "sidebar" link in some other article I was reading.  I don't actively read or watch very much "entertainment" media, but I didn't see or hear much else about her back then either.  I came across that Tweet photo today and thought it was odd that aside from writing such a dismissive headline that THR waited all this time to write an obituary.  The linked article has some other points that THR neglected.

Robert Plotnik, ‘Bleecker Bob’ of Record-Store Fame, Dies at 75

“...'Without him it’s unlikely there would be the Ramones, Elvis Costello, Talking Heads, New York Dolls, so many acts now so well established in the music firmament but 40 years ago just whispers,” the critic Roger Friedman wrote on the website Showbiz411. “CBGB’s and the Mudd Club were where you heard the music, but Bleecker Bob’s was where you held, felt it, saw it, listened to it, bought it.'”


Odd timing but I bought the self-released Buzzcocks EP "Spiral Scratch" in his store back in 1977, on his recommendation - two or three bucks for import singles or EPs back then.   Outside of the NYC area he probably wasn't that widely known, but both linked articles are interesting.  A lot of the "punk rock" icons from those days hung out in his store - especially if it was cold or raining.

"I am the world's oldest rebel," Smith told UNHCR Magazine in October. "I think there are many things we can do if we put our minds to it, and we shouldn't be leaving anyone out."
