Dori Hadar was digging through records at a flea market when he stumbled into the elaborate world of Mingering Mike -- a soul superstar of the 1960s and '70s who released 50 albums and at least as many singles in just 10 years. But Hadar had never heard of him, and he soon realized why: every album was made of cardboard. Each package was intricately crafted, complete with gatefold interiors, extensive liner notes, and grooves drawn onto the vinyl. In addition to nearly 200 records by Mingering Mike, the crates included albums by other artists, soundtracks to imaginary films, and more. Hadar put his detective skills to work and soon found -- and befriended -- the elusive man responsible for this alternate universe of funk. Here is the full story of Mike's imaginary superstardom, with all of his best albums and 45s in full color.
