love those stills, thanks J

Pretty off-topic, but I’m watching Sixteen Candles — a cassette of Talking Heads’ Fear of Music is seen (but not heard) playing in the party scene.

Before Sunrise had a record store in Vienna called Alt & Neu:

It's a real record shop as well.

I Want Someone To Eat Cheese With had a scene shot in Atomic Records IIRC

alas i have no screencaps

Only things I recognize off the bat are Introducing the Hardline According to Terence Trent D'Arby, Madman Across the Water, and Cats.

Oh, and Darkness on the Edge of Town.

Payolas' "Hammer On A Drum" is on the far left there

Andreas Vollenweider White Winds and the Kristofferson/Streisand soundtrack for A Star is Born.

Payolas! I was trying to figure that out like, "Crayolas? Loyolas?"

The light grey one with a picture of Anne Murray is "Anne Murray's Greatest Hits".

The Fixx Reach the Beach is next to the Elton John record.

haha xp Between "Introducing the Hardline According to Terence Trent D'Arby" and "Madman Across the Water" is "Reach The Beach" by The fix (I think). And I reckon the one second from theleft in that row is "Anytime... Anywhere" by Rita Coolidge.

Wow, this one is really paying off.

The other side of Madman is another Elton LP, Victim of Love.

It took me a while to figure it out, but yellow dress in the first pic is Larger Than Life by Jody Watley.

wtf is on those horizontally stacked shelves in the Before Sunrise shot?

(T-)Shirts?

I guessed it was sheet music.

The Man Who Fell to Earth (1976)

is that a real record? seems unlikely

no. but, Jim O'Rourke did name his 2009 album after it.

but that was the only photo I could find of the final scene, which takes place in a record shop.

XP That's the album Bowie's character releases. As I pointed out upthread, Torn passes a display for Young Americans in the same scene.

Recent example - Heart Beats Loud (2018)

This Christmas 1968 scene in Scrooged. In the window display (from different camera angles): Kinks, Moby Grape, Buffalo Springfield, Jerry Lee Lewis, The Velvet Underground, Rolling Stones, The Zombies, The Electric Flag, Hair soundtrack and some others I can't quite make out.

VU is the only anomaly, no?

VU & Nico came out in early '67, so no.

I think they all line up for the time period. Mitch Glazer co-wrote the screenplay, and had previously written for Rolling Stone and Crawdaddy so I'm guessing he had a hand in making sure it was accurate (though skewed with hindsight).

oh yeah Scrooged takes place in NYC. VU & Nico wouldn't have been in every record store in America like the rest.

The weird thing is that it's still in the window in late '68...and that 1968 Bill Murray looks just like 1988 Bill Murray.

...also the text on the vu & nico cover would suggest it's a late seventies or eighties reissue

(xp) Mullets were not a thing in 1968.

Somebody had one, I'll betcha

Bill Murray.

I had forgotten there's a good one in Peggy Sue Got Married but I can't find a screenshot.

Nicolas Cage sells a skeptical client on some Dvorak

also this scene in Juice, where they steal some records

That "Peggy Sue" scene is a great one.

I wouldn't really recommend watching PENNY SERENADE (1941) but the record store scene is kind of amazing: was that what record shops were like in 1941? Runs from about 3.30 here:

The Prisoner, Episode 15, "The Girl Who Was Death"

Potter tells Number 6 he is to go to Booth 7 in the Magnum Record shop to receive his instructions. Magnum Record was a fictitious business created for the story. The exterior of the store was shot at 187 Shenley Road, Borehamwood, now a Barnardo's thrift store.

Number 6 receives his mission message from a record played at the Magnum Record shop.

There's another scene involving buying records in Episode 10, "Hammer Into Anvil".

Having left the Green Dome, Number 6 observes the posters in the bay window of the General Stores. “Music begins where words leave off,” “Music says all,” And “Music makes for a quiet mind.” He enters the General Stores, selects a copy of The Tally Ho, then examining the sleeves of a selection of LP records, he selects the Davier recording of Bizet’s L’arlesienne and wants to hear it, well all six copies of the record as a matter of fact. But surely they are all the same!

THE DAY THE MUSIC STORE DIED = when they were no longer jampacked with little promotional statues of nipper imo

Amazing work and amazing cover art. Billy May is giving big Brian Dennehy vibes.

It's a shame Roy Kinnear never got to play Billy May in a dicey British movie.

what i ended up doing was toying around with the filters on Discogs. so for instance i went to the Capitol Records label page, clicked on "1,174,024 copies" to show everything in the marketplace, then filtered by [LP] and [1960] and at that point a lot of the records started showing up as i combed through

Here's the thing that Sleeve thought might be Gone With The Wind: "Out Love Story" by Gordon and Shiela Macrae.

Haunani – Moon Of The Southern Seas

Amazing.

hot dog!

Billy May has 500k monthly Spotify listeners! Probably mostly because of Christmas songs? While I surely ran across him in the bins, I must not have seen any of the records with his face on the cover, 'cuz it woulda stuck.
