Tower Records was my cult. I miss that place the most.

We had one in Minneapolis at the Mall of America when it opened. It had a great selection but I was still partial to Cheapo, Northern Lights, and Positively 4th St. Cheapo is still around and I stop in there a few times a year. The other 2 closed down a long time ago -- possibly before MOA opened in the early 90's I think,

Went to the one in LA on a trip recently. Was awesome to see that much great music on one spot again.

It's wild that we probably won't see a return to those types of stores ever again. COVID really put the final nail in the coffin.
