    Cover draws you in, for sure.

    At least half of all the vinyl I still own came from this great shop in the KC burbs run by the brother of actor Ben Asner (who actually was the owner and, at one point, boasted he made $500k annually from it). Cool place to hang out. Always something hilarious or slightly shady going down.

    OMG: I knew that store and my father knew the Asner's! In fact, we used to pick-up some of my first LPs at his house (before I could drive). That was one of my first experiences in a record store.
