I love that store!!!! I'm lucky enough 2 live 10 minutes 4rm one. Which is a good thing and a bad thing. I have a habit of buying cds when I really shouldn't like, when I'm broke, lol.

Which one? LA or San Fran or Berkeley?

i've been to the san fran and berkeley locations.

there's another wrecka stow in that area that blew me away...not as big but the selection of imports and rare stuff was pretty fabu. is it called rasputin records?

Anxiety said:

Ah Rasputin's! It never grabbed me like Amoeba. Most of the time I didn't find what I was looking for. Compared that to Amoeba, where it just seems endless when you are there. Make sure to have a list ready, and be prepared to buy way more than that.

yeah, i remember rasputins seemed to scratch my goth/industrial/wierdo-fringe music itch, whereas amoeba just had LOTS of EVERYTHING.

Anxiety said:

Rasputin's is right next to Amoeba in Berkeley

i bought this like rare japanese visual kei album at rasputin
in japan it will cost like about 100(i mean they were indie) it only cost me 4 dollars.

There are a few Amoeba Record stores in my area but surprisingly,I've never been I do go to Rasputin all the time....maybe cause it's closer,lol.

I love this store. Parking is awful, but I can spend hours in this joint

If u make it down 2 San Diego check out Lou's Records. U can get new cd's sometimes 4 a $1.00.

I drive past the Berkeley store once a week or so...

so...

much...

wreckas...

Every time I go home to L.A. the Sunset Amoeba is like going to the gas station. It's just something I do in L.A. It's natural.

Rest in peace: Aron's Records off Highland.

I find it ok though. I am turned off by the elevador and the confusing layout.

I am very into vinyl these days and Amoeba has a lot of new vinyl.

I went to the one in San Francisco last month,and I had seen the pictures on their website,but when I walked in I was . I left with one of every Prince CD they had. Will definately be going back.

It also has an indescribable smell
