Too funny, my friend owns Neptune. I have a hat from there I wear out here a lot. Love Windy & Carl too... I'm actually from Dearborn.

Melodies & Memories on Gratiot (a few miles south of RT). Neptune in Royal Oak is good for indie and some IDM. The Record Collector in Ferndale is great for retro vinyl as is Car City records on Harper near 8 mile way over on the east side. WAY down in Wyandotte used to be a very odd, but cool store called Sprockets; they had every Ozric Tentacles CD in existence as well as tons of off the wall 70s stuff - almost nothing you'd think of as "rent paying" stock in the store. Stormy Records (ran by Windy & Carl) in Dearborn is fun - lots of indie stuff. East Alley Records in Rochester has a good rep, but I've never been there. It really is hard to beat RT for 313 related items. jeff At 07:13 PM 3/5/2002, you wrote: >Hey All, > >I was born and raised in 313, but have since moved away.
