Evil Naughty Record Store
About 7 months ago, Tower Records went bankrupt. The nearby store in Mountain View closed its doors. I’ve been an eMusic subscriber for a few years and, between Amazon, Amoeba Records in San Francisco, and eMusic, I hadn’t been to Tower in quite some time.
A couple of months ago, Rasputin Music bought the Tower Records location in Mountain View. Rasputin is well-known for their gargantuan selection of the full gamut of music and their staggeringly large used CD and vinyl shelves. The new (and still in the process of setting up) location in Mountain View is by no means an exception.
Ozreiuosn and I wandered over there this evening. She was looking for Björk CDs and I was looking for jazz. I tried to keep my purchase under $50. With sales tax, I was slightly over, but I got some choice old remastered jazz recordings for $8 a pop. I just have to remind myself not to go there very often.
Otherwise, that crazy Russian mystic will make off with all of my rubles.
