This is amazing. Its a 10-minute film of Tower Records on Sunset Strip, Los Angeles in 1971. First thing - its packed full of vinyl. Stacks and racks of shiny new LPs, not the dog-eared old records we see today. I went there in 1993 and it was gloriously packed full of CDs and tapes, but nothing like this. And unlike record buyers today, the customers in the film arent obviously music nerds or cool dudes. Theyre just ordinary people buying popular records. The craziest thing though - the staff are smoking. Just casually puffing away at the till, with an ashtray on the counter. You dont get that on Spotify.
