It sort of sounds like the premise of the movie "Empire Records" but without the happy ending. I guess everyone has their price. Which means that the premise in "The Magic Christian" was correct.Ellen Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02845981491726296767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10348701.post-1160326195747698142006-10-08T09:49:00.000-07:002006-10-08T09:49:00.000-07:00Here's a manual trackback with some more reminisci...Here's a manual trackback with some more reminiscing. <BR/><BR/>http://www.castingoutnines.net/2006/10/08/farewell-tower/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10348701.post-1160324960197306682006-10-08T09:29:00.000-07:002006-10-08T09:29:00.000-07:00Wow, this really is the end of an era. On the one ...Wow, this really is the end of an era. On the one hand, I have lots of high school memories associated with the Tower Records where I grew up, in Nashville, TN. On the other hand, a lot of those memories consist of Cd's costing $20 a shot where you could get them at Wal-Mart for $14, and the unabashed snottiness of the staff there. So I guess Tower is/was just a sign of its time.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10348701.post-1160273316718932172006-10-07T19:08:00.000-07:002006-10-07T19:08:00.000-07:00I used to buy many albums and 45 rpm records at To...I used to buy many albums and 45 rpm records at Tower....when ever I got to a town that had Tower records. They almost always had what I was looking for.....but that was 25 years ago and prior to the advent of the recording companies forcing retailers to sell their whole line or not get anything. Stores/Chains like Tower got stuck with stores full of crap that no one wanted to buy. Then the internet came along and the rest is history.....bye bye Tower Records.Dan Edwardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13397636504405471939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10348701.post-1160273237177933152006-10-07T19:07:00.000-07:002006-10-07T19:07:00.000-07:00It's obviously Bush's fault.LOLNice<I>It's obviously Bush's fault.</I><BR/>LOL<BR/><BR/>Nicegbradleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03786652600757982286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10348701.post-1160269885952522062006-10-07T18:11:00.000-07:002006-10-07T18:11:00.000-07:00It's obviously Bush's fault.It's obviously Bush's fault.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
