Rite-Aid Rocks! By ericsandberg [15 more lists]
Where is Tower? Virgin? Turtles? The Record Bar, Tracks? Where is there a decent record store anywhere within 10 miles of your house?
Do you miss the fun of discovery while browsing in a record store near your home. These days, a trip to the nearest decent record store involves Google Maps, a picnic basket and a full tank of gas. There is still some fun to be had locally, if you know where to look. I have discovered that Rite-Aid carries a surprisingly eclectic and ever-replenished selection of CDs at bargain prices! I stop at every Rite-Aid I see and discover wonders in their CD racks. Following are a few examples of the gems I've found for $7.99, or less!

Jane's Addiction Up From The Catacombs
Great CD for the uninitiated. Nice gate-fold cardboard sleeve with booklet full of art and liner notes. My only quibble is the inclusion of a live version of "She Said" in place of the more familiar studio version. -

Phish Live In Brooklyn
Elaborately packaged triple-disc live set from Trey and company. This is one of their more accessible wanking forays.
Definitely worth it at $7.99! - 3
Al Stewart Collection
Remastered two-disc career overview of the British troubadour who brought us "Year Of The Cat" & "Time Passages". -
- 4
Tolouse Street
Meticulous Rhino recreation of the original LP package in CD form. - 5
Kind Of Blue
State of the art remaster from Columbia/Sony this seminal jazz record with a bonus track and extensive liner notes.
