Record Stores Quotes

I was introduced to lots of great music through my local record store. It was a place where people knew music and they knew me, and could make great suggestions and discoveries. Whether it is in the physical world or on-line, the value of a great and knowledgeable record store has not gone away Picture Quote #1

The openness of rural Nebraska certainly influenced me. That openness, in a way, fosters the imagination. But growing up, Lincoln wasn’t a small town. It was a college town. It had record stores and was a liberal place Picture Quote #1

Look at music for what it’s worth around the world and not just America. In other countries, people are still buying CDs and going to record stores. But in America, it’s all about digital. The game is breaking down. But, look at me, you need to know how to play the game the right way Picture Quote #1

How about no one’s ever going to outsell Michael Jackson at selling records because the record industry is over. Game over. There’s no more record stores. With no more record stores there’s no more pressing plants. With no more pressing plants, there’s no more charts Picture Quote #1

Independent record stores are like a casino where you put down your money and you always win. How amazing to discover gems you didn’t know about, to meet someone more passionate than you are, and to feel at home in a place you may never have been to before. I’m convinced they will never lose their place - Long may they rule Picture Quote #1

The idea of, ‘The journey is the destination’ is put into action by browsing in an indie record store. Besides, a human being is a much better guide than a ‘More Like This’ link on the internet Picture Quote #1

I have watched independent record stores evaporate all over America and Europe. That’s why I go into as many as I can and buy records whenever possible. If we lose the independent record store, we lose big. Every time you buy your records at one of these places, it’s a blow to the empire Picture Quote #1

I love Rebel Rebel in Manhattan’s West Village for vinyl, but record stores are hard to come by these days. I almost don’t even use iTunes. I mostly use music subscription services. But I’ll go into Rebel Rebel once a month or so and buy everything I love on vinyl Picture Quote #1

The ‘cool’ record store. It is where you can talk to people who are like you. They look like you, think like you and, most tellingly like the same music as you - the only comparable experience these days would probably be an art museum - an actual place where you can stand and simply be surrounded by your heroes Picture Quote #1

Once I got into punk rock, I started mail-ordering albums, because a lot of the record stores in my area didn’t carry the punk bands from England or Sweden or Chicago or Los Angeles Picture Quote #1

[Columbia House] magazines were how I found out about the punk world going on in New York. Because of what I read, at the age of 15, I hounded the local record store to order a copy of Horses [1975] for me by Patti Smith Picture Quote #1

I definitely love record stores. And worked in many over the years. Having said that, it’s not necessarily that I love vinyl per se. I mean, I’m happy to use CDs and MP3s: to me, it’s the music that’s top priority. I do have a good collection of vinyl, but I rarely actually pull it out Picture Quote #1

I think the good thing about the Internet is to give something away and to sell something else. Get a business model like that because the old brick and mortar record stores are falling apart, and the big record companies are collapsing under their own weight Picture Quote #1

Record stores are great because it’s good to physically get your hands on the music instead of downloading. It’s always better to get the artwork too Picture Quote #1

Record stores have whole sections devoted to the chant Picture Quote #1

Thus science may implement the ways in which man produces, stores, and consults the record of the race Picture Quote #1

I always tell the girls never take it seriously, if you never take it seriously you never get hurt, if you never get hurt you always have fun, and if you ever get lonely just go to the record store and visit your friends Picture Quote #1

Immersing yourself in the environment of a real record store where music is celebrated and cherished adds real value to the experience of buying music. In some ways, that retail experience is as important as the music Picture Quote #1

But trust me, if I lived in the 80s, I would definitely be the one going to the record stores Picture Quote #1

Record stores can’t save your life. But they can give you a better one Picture Quote #1

I don’t go to record stores to look at my albums, but it’s always a thrill to see them Picture Quote #1

It's important to keep indie record stores alive because their unique environments introduce music lovers to things in a very personal way Picture Quote #1

I always show love to the local record stores because they actually listen to me... They know the songs on my cds. They look like me, straight out the hood. They know whats hot and what is on they shelf Picture Quote #1

I have a sort of tactility about music. I go into record stores and just run my fingers over it, the spines Picture Quote #1

Music is an important part of our culture and record stores play a vital part in keeping the power of music alive Picture Quote #1

Part of it is, I think, just to let people know you’ve got a record out there and that you’re still alive requires more work than it used to, because the traditional radio, bug chains of record stores, all of that, that doesn’t exist anymore Picture Quote #1

To see a lot of the smaller labels disappear or get gobbled up by the bigger labels, that’s a shame. It was a bit of a shock at first to see the demise of the record stores Picture Quote #1

Even as a kid, if I would come across something cool in the record store, that would be how I found out about bands. It’s kind of the same way these days. In a way even less because there are no record stores to go to anymore Picture Quote #1
