RECORD STORE: YR DOING IT RIGHT

Messy Nessy Chic has some wonderful photos of the inside of HMV in the 1960s. 









It was all downhill from there, apparently. Even when I was growing up in the 80s, record stores looked nothing like this – or at least not the mall chain stores that I was aware of at the time. Then again, maybe it’s a British thing. For all I know, American record stores in the 60s looked more or less the same as they did in the 80s.
