all summer I've been wanting to take a tour of the lower Hawthorne record stores ..there are 6 or 7 of them...so today I put the bike in the truck and drove over there...parked at abt 49th and rode down to 30th and back....
Out of them all , I appreciated
"CrossRoads Music" and
"Jackpot" the most ....CRM is a vinyl co-op ...there are 40-50 sellers and each has a section..so if you dont find the desired record in 1 section you have to go try the next...prices are all over depending on seller section....they do have a couple boxes of free records by the door and sometimes they are pretty good...the Winwood was a freebie.
Jackpot has a fair pile of dollar records
If anyone is interested in used vinyl in Portland, I picked up the 2010 map of stores and can scan it ....
had hopes for the Cat Stevens...but the magic of his early LP's seems to have evaporated. second copy of 461 , but I like it a lot and now have a LR and BR copy.
Must have been in a Stills mood...
...seems like BMWPhil was looking for "Illegal Stills" at one time ?
The Mayall is a double..
