rocknroll76 Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 There's not really much near Agoura Hills. Your best bet would be to go over the hill a few miles and hit Amoeba Hollywood. It would probably take about a half hour depending on time of day/traffic. You'd take the 101 freeway south from Agoura and exit Sunset. 6400 Sunset Blvd. Los Angeles, CA 90018 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

burntwolf Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 is anything else really worth hitting other than Ameoba LA? we'll be down there for the Ben Weasel show and will hit Ameoba for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyleevanswastaken Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Goodluck, California is the last place I would expect to see a record store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocknroll76 Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Goodluck, California is the last place I would expect to see a record player. I don't think he's looking for record players, just records. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rocknroll76 Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Don't forget Headline as mentioned by Impact, it's very close to Amoeba and they have a very good selection for a small store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zak138 Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Headline for sure, if you make the trek to OC go to Vinyl Solution in HB and TKO in Fountain Valley. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeian Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 this might be outdated as i scanned it a few months ago, but you can pick up one of these at Amoeba Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travis Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Amoeba is MASSIVE. Try to plan to have at least a couple hours to spend there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deafmx Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 Amoeba is always fun. I take it Aron's Records in Hollywood is long gone? used to love going there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest genericinsight Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 The staff at Amoeba were complete assholes when I went there a few years ago. Hopefully that's changed now, because the store itself rules. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manicdogbert Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 FYI, the following record stores on that list are gone daddy gone Benway Fat Beats Go Boy House of Records Vinyl Fetish Sea Level Aron's was hands down the best record shop in L.A. Amoeba is now the Walmart of indie record shops and, IMO, is one of the main reasons why all the good shops have shut down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Headline is ten times better (more rare finds) and the owner cool too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
