I think I heard the greatest news ever this past Wednesday morning on my local NPR station.
Ten months after the closing of my favorite local record shop Tower Records, Russ Solomon - founder and previous owner of said record shop - has opened a NEW record shop. Modeled after the original Tower Record's philosophy which he feels can still work in this digital age, R5 Records has opened for business across the street from where the first Tower Records opened forty years ago. If this new venture works out, he plans to open additional stores outside of Sacramento.
To say that I heard a choir of angeles when I heard this news would be an understatement.
To Mr. Solomon - thank you, good luck and Godspeed. I'll just sit right down here and wait.
