Sounds on St. Mark's Place used to have some great cheap vinyl--unlike Record Runner and Bleeker Bob's which I thought were a little overpriced. I think Sounds are totally CDs now. | |

Vinylmania on Carmine is pretty cool for current 12" singles. I think they are still open. | |

The store I go to the most nowadays is Other Music on 4th. You can actually check on their website beforehand if they have a CD in stock. | |

i remember buying diamonds n pearls and van morrisons hymms to the silence on the frilday before the tuesday release on the same day i was one joyous camper indeed Hymns to the Silence is one of my all time favourite songs. I can listen to it for hours on repeat (not that I have that kind of time anymore ). It is great for going into that trans~meditational state. Music is the language of the spirit. It opens the secret of life bringing peace, abolishing strife. --Kahlil Gibran | |

That's a big DJ place. And I was still buying vinyl at the time and asked one of the clerks where the vinyl version of D&P was and he told me there wasn't any. | |
