though i'm not from Brooklyn, any talk of record stores in the area without mention of Eat Records in Greenpoint is totally blasphemous.
in philly, there's a few:
AKA Records (on 2nd, right before Market): uh, lots of used CDs and a shitload of obscuro CDs/ records that you only thought you could mailorder. tons of nurse with wound and old soul on vinyl.
Philadelphia Record Exchange (on 5th? near South): if you look, you can find gems-- i got a great recording of Istanbul's street sounds from the 60s here. mostly vinyl.
Spaceboy (low on South): Typical indie store-- new records, new CDs, pretty good selection. Also sells tickets, which is nice.
Repo (on South, 6th): Expensive. But if you're looking for old punk/rocknroll vinyl, this place is the bee's knees. Asshole employees.
there are a few more, but they're not that good-- mostly boxes and boxes of crap and old grindcore records that i bought in middle school. mmmmmmm

xpost Hey Chris -- haven't seen you around here in a while.
I recently discovered that there's another notable record store in JC -- Stan's on Bergen Ave. which seems to specialize in old soul and doo-wop stuff. The owner is quite knowledgeable.

Hey Hurting. Been meaning to shoot you an email, but I think I lost your email address. Do you administrate the American Altitude myspace page?
re: Stan's. Never heard of it, but I'm gonna check it out. Do they have a site?
