for recs, I'll be working @ the M-Theory used spot from 10-6 on Sat. The address is 2234 30th St 92104, I'd reccomend googling because the streets change names a bunch and are kinda tricky. We've got some good hip hop 12"s, lots of newer rock stuff, pretty interesting selection. We've also got a store for new inventory accross the st which is pretty hard to fuck with on the current rock vinyl tip.

Other spots I endorse would be:

The Armory (630 9th Ave 92101) for hip hop 12"s and mixtapes, plus spray accessories and gear.

Thirsty Moon (525 Evans pl 92103) for all sorts of Psyche/Garage/Punk/Soul reissues, and a couple originals, which are generally priced pretty high. They're about 1/2 a block from...

Record City (3757 6th Ave 92103) which has a large quantity and pretty cheap prices, but no real rhyme or reason to the mele. Plus they're real weird about their listening stations, which I don't get.

holler if you're coming through.
