Now selling LPs.
I've only been there once (I've only been to NYC twice). I found it by
accident when I went to see the WTC site. We toured St. Paul's Chapel
(an AMAZING place across the street from Ground Zero that ministered to
fire fighters, police, construction workers, etc. with counseling and
prayer, massage, meals, beds, etc. around the clock for 8 months. It's
the oldest active building in continuous use in Manhattan. George
Washington regularly worshiped there). When we stepped out the back
door of the church, I saw the sign for the store. I had seen the ads
for years, and was really happy to visit, finally. It's a great CD
store; one of the best I've ever seen.

Nope. I really didn't have time or intention to do anything regarding
audio or recordings (saving that for the next trip!)

How many lev did it run you?
Speaking of out-there music, Arnii Krybaby's favorite movie is going live on
Broadway.

Wow! How is the music section at that Borders in general? All of them
in SoCal that I've seen are shrinking.
