sound at the record store

Hi Lowrider where have you been?

Gramophone did an article about the best record store. This dealt in some post hoc way with the slow demise of big chains like HMV, Tower, Virgin, etc...

Anyway, there is a store in Reykjavik, Iceland which provides a good system and compact disks for customers to hear before they buy. There is a cafe in the front of the store so that you can order an espresso and a snack and the staff will then bring it to you while you're in lounging in front of the stereo. The hope is that you will buy recordings but there is never any pressure.

Given the option to buy records at this store in Reykjavik or the dives in my town, I'd choose the Reykjavik store hands down.

I do not buy things from people who tell me I "can buy something for $300 but it is worth $800." I tell them no thank you.

You guys still have Record Stores?... Don't complain.

Goofyfoot, that sounds very cool. But what else is there to do in Iceland but hang out in a record store?

Hi Lowrider,
I'm not sure what folks do in Iceland since I've never been there but there's no American football so that's very appealing in and of itself.
I would guess that fish is in abundance. That's it, some freshly caught fish while sampling the latest classical releases.
Can I get fries with that?
