.... saddened by the disappearance of record/cd stores?

Tower looks like it's going down, Borders and B&N are shrinking music

Mainstream chains going down.. good riddance.
There weren't any when I was a kid and Tower folding is like the Walmart
of records closing up AFAIAC.


I've always lived pretty near really good, large Towers. I'm now 3
hours from the best ones, IMO. They are FAR from the Walmart of
Records: deep catalogue, hard to find stuff, etc. especially at the
Classical Annex of the Sunset Blvd. store.

... I see record stores returning to local independent
roots.


If that happens, great. I'll hope for deep inventories.

Everytime I drop by Lous records in Encinitas I can barely
find a place to park.


Tell me about that place; maybe I'll go tomorrow. Do they have LPs?


Very few, I recall one little rack last time I was there.

Do
they have a lot of classical?


Define a lot? they have some but probably not a lot.


Hmmm, I'll check it out next trip to Vista.


There used to be a Tower in San Marcos...big store
with lots of music racks with just a few cds per rack.
It was weird..all that space and no stock.

Ever been to Gary's Record Paradise in Escondido?
Its a dump with the largest thrift shop grade vinyl
collection I've ever seen.
I bet you'd love it .


lol Nah, I'm into the "good stuff".
