Tom in RI Posted August 20, 2003 Report Share Posted August 20, 2003 I'll be in Baltimore for a day in September with some time to kill in the afternoon. Looking forward to a ballgame at Camden Yards in the evening. Can anyone recommend any good used shops that I should try to check out while I'm there (both cd and vinyl)? TIA.

Peter Johnson Posted August 20, 2003 Report Share Posted August 20, 2003 Normal's Record and Book store. I got a great haul of first and second press blue notes there one winter ; unfortunately, I've struck out every time I've been back (twice, now). Don't know their address, but you can phone them on 410-243-6888. Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rooster_Ties Posted August 20, 2003 Report Share Posted August 20, 2003 There's a cool classical store with some jazz (as I recall) right in the downtown area, not terribly far from the conservatory (or at least that's where they get half or more of their business from, I gather). Was there once for a wedding. Picked up some seriously cool used 20th Century classical CD's, as I recall, including a couple titles I later found out were normally really hard to find. Somebody from Baltimore can surely provide the details. Did/do they have any jazz - or am I just remembering wrong??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Son-of-a-Weizen Posted August 24, 2003 Report Share Posted August 24, 2003 Tom, You'll want to head over to Sound Garden in the Fells Point area of Balt ........over on Thames Street. Less than 10 min from the stadium and adjacent to the inner harbor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vibes Posted August 24, 2003 Report Share Posted August 24, 2003 Welcome back, Weizen! How was your trip? We've missed you around here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Son-of-a-Weizen Posted August 24, 2003 Report Share Posted August 24, 2003 Had an excellent time thanks! Nothing like sitting out in those 5,000 seat Chestnut tree-shaded beer gardens to beat the heat. Tell ya what, that Pathfinder Deluxe Garment Bag is an exceptional piece of luggage....you can comfortably stash close to an entire case of Rothaus Hefe-Weizen & Pils into her without busting a bottle!

bertrand Posted May 2, 2006 Report Share Posted May 2, 2006 An Die Musik on Charles Street, and True Vine somewhere. The latter had a lot of vinyl and a lot of free stuff. The former is worth a stop if you are in the neighborhood (near Peabody Conservatory), but don't go out of your way. Bertrand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
