These days I stop by the various used record stores in Boston and often I'm the only one there.
The ending of so many "underground gathering places" is sad.
There is a lot of chaffe at the Boston record stores to get at those few nuggets.
I know a local record store here that keeps low inventory and will pass on used copies of the "big sellers" of old. They bloat the racks and don't generate new interest so much. Doesn't matter if the seller is practically giving them away; they aren't even worth filing.
