Miss this shop so much, I remember discovering Autechre and Boards of Canada there thanks to an amazing sales person that changed my life in music forever

RIP Rollerblade Mike. We love you.

This was great. I would love to see a documentary on Bleecker Street Records too. I spent so much money there.

I was intro duced to Regina Spektor via 500 days of Summer movie. Her music is meaningful!!

Working in a cool indie record store in the 70s-90s was THE coolest job in the world!

I picked up Sooooo many gems there from '97 -07 when I lived in the East Village and Brooklyn. A friend and myself brought them 10 copies of Diane Clucks self produced and hand made album Ova Nil and got them to carry it. One of the better achievements of my life : )

The story continues! Thanks for the recommendations…

Looks like a lovely documentary but it makes me feel... existentially sick, that were losing spaces like this forever... its not even one of those, you never know what'll happen in the future things. just gone...

I was listening to Interpol before you were BORN!

You mean you haven't been able to find another job where you get to bloviate about superior knowledge in a specialist subject, and titter at others for their bourgeois tastes? (All in good fun)

I loved Indie but hated the thick veil of elitism surrounding it.

Agreed it’s a great look into the indie rock scene but it’s also pretentious and digital music is nit evil.

Good movie. But took great exception at Other Music folks in the movie crapping on Tower Records. Tower Records started off just like them rising against all odds. Towe Records was birthed in Sacramento, CA out all places in the corner of local drugstore at a time when no one was opening record stores. It will be cherished in the hearts of so many people. Always hated this attitude of folks in this movie "we are special, honest and artistic and are pioneers" while being smug and elite at the same time. All Things Must Pass about Tower Records is a far superior documentary. I still appreciated this movie being a lover of vinyl. But when you are on the fringe of a movement, where ever you are , should always be careful not to wander into an elitist mentality and have the gall as if you are in unique and navigating uncharted territory. To infer that Tower Records didnt quite a bit of the music that Other Music didnt have, is not true

I preferred Kims on St. Marks Place. Used CDS much cheaper and 3 floors including movies and smut.

There were many great record stores in the village in the day. Other Music was not on our lists of faves. Nothing wrong with it, there were just better places to go.
