Let’s go CD shopping!
Back in the day before the internet ruled the earth and people went to malls etc…
What was your favorite record store?
When I was a teenager, I always shopped at Birdland Records in Virginia Beach, VA. Great selection and great service.
Are there any non-chain stores that you still frequent for your music needs?
Not really. I only buy CD’s if they’re of a decent price (I won’t pay more than $12 if possible). Or I just put it on my Christmas wishlist for family to buy for me. Otherwise, it’s digital downloads for me (iTunes, eMusic).
What was your favorite “find” at your favorite store?
In the summer of 1989, I bought what became my favorite album by the BoDeans - Home (featuring “You Don’t Get Much”)

I agree with you about CD prices, mind you there are a few bands that I’ll pay more than 12 for, Elvis Costello, The Moody Blues, Grey Eye Glances…but otherwise I look for a good deal. Thank god for Amazon and LaLa.
