dude, the music we listened to was either purchased, traded, or copied - that's it. If you had 100 records or tapes in your collection, that was a lot. Finances were tough so you had to buy blank tapes and record off a vinyl or cassette that a friend may have owned. We would all go the the record shop and each purchase a different album, strictly for this reason.



You guys have it all now.

Record stores would be packed on certain release days.

Oh man, even if you weren't purchasing anything, just browsing around was awesome too. You had a greater appreciation for the music and product as a whole. Nothing beats owning a physical copy and following the lyrics while listening, while reading the liner notes and observing the album art as well. For whatever reason, physical copies even had/have a particular scent, especially a store bought cassette.

I live in New York City bro, and they're disappearing like crazy. They used to be EVERYWHERE.

I remember hearing about that and not being old enough to attend.

There are still many great places to buy records in Copenhagen, fortunately

Nobody enjoys those good ole glam days more than myself Jamie, as my ratings would indicate. Mr. Swantko understands the point I was trying to make.


Ok, fair enough.

There are literally none in my area. It would be great but oh well, at least I can still jam awesome shit. Now if I didn't have the web to connect me to all of this...that would fucking suck.
