I'm going to NYC in a couple of weeks- any suggestons for record stores. I'd imagine there are not quite as many as the last time I was there!
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thx.

Check out Academy on 18th between 5th and 6th for good used CDs and DVDs.

Rebel Rebel is definitely worth checking out. Always a good selection of new and used vinyl. Lots of imports. Quite a bit of rare stuff as well. Very heavy on stuff from the 80's. Though I found that the prices on the older 12"'s and 45's are a little pricey. They jam a lot of stuff into a tiny store.

Not to mention John DiSalvo of Tuff Darts being behind the counter. [8D]

Amazing! I've known David for more than 20 years (as a customer of Rebel Rebel) and never realized this.

Alot of music store employees are or were in bands. When I worked at Tower at Fourth & Broadway during college, I worked with Rob Jones of the Wonderstuff, Mike Dolan of the Turbo ACs and Kumasi of D-Xtreme. Crazy.

Is Sounds on St. Marks Place still there? I used to love that place in the 80s. If it is still there, worth a stop just for the history
That place used to get so crowded they had a bouncer at the front door.

I stopped into Rebel Rebel tonight.
David has cds of Hysterica Passio for sale; he also had the 12" vinyl for 80$+
