A recent article about the place where people bought their first record, prompted more than 1,800 readers to share their own stories about the music they bought, and the many different record shops they used to frequent.
The article recalled the thrill of making that first purchase. Browsing at the racks and deciding on the format - vinyl for the artwork, tape for convenience, CD if you were rich.
