About:No music lover's trip to San Francisco would be complete without a visit to this warehouse-sized music store, formerly a bowling alley, at the entrance of Golden Gate Park. The Upper Haight store bustles with hundreds of shoppers flipping through vast selections of CDs, records, tapes, videos and posters. The deals on used and yellow tag (cosmetically damaged, functionally guaranteed) items are the best in the city, as is the selection of obscure and independent-label titles. Finally, it features its own live music venue, where up-and-coming acts play to the crowds five or six times a week.

    I am spoiled living in San Francisco with the little shops I tend to take for granted. Last weekend, I finally came across a record store that allowed me to trade in my CDs I'm bored with, and walk out with credit to buy more stuff in the future. Cool and highly recommended. So much better than the overpriced book stores, and so on.

    Simply the all time greatest record store on planet Earth; loved by me as much as the late, great Sound Exchange here in Austin, Tx. I didn't leave my heart in San Francisco, I left it at Amoeba! See you next vacation!
