New York Times on Record Store Day

April 22nd 2008 in Articles

The New York Tines has a nice piece on Record Store Day in New York City and the shape of the independent music stores in the world of digital distribution. From the article:

“Record stores as we know them are dying,” said Josh Madell of Other Music. “On the other hand, there is still a space in the culture for what a record store does, being a hub of the music community and a place to find out about new music.”

Thanks fpr supporting local music.
