Everyday Music
This is probably my favorite music store in the area. I'm far from committing entirely to the passable quality of MP3s and the lack of artwork or any other goodies when buying albums in purely digital form. So walking my fingers across CD cases and vinyl will always be a bit of a sentiment. Apart from that, this place has one hell of a selection--jazz, folk, reggae, pop/rock, r&b, hip hop, plus new and used vinyl crates. I don't usually bug the staff here, but they’ve always been helpful when asked. For many titles they will have used copies or even cheaper "skufs." These are CDs with surface scratches or other neglible flaws that usually sell for $6 or less. I have bought several of these and never had any problems playing them, however, they are guaranteed if they don’t work. That's right, get some Bing Crosby for the old lady and a couple of death metal CDs for the kiddies and still have enough dough to get some smokes and a gentleman's mint. Take that, Amazon!
