    I think so. That and exclusive vinyl releases only for today. I know, it's a gimmick for people to go out and buy **** but there's some cool releases you can find for sure. There's a really nice Gwar vinyl release I'm sure people are into that.

    When they closed the owners said "you can't compete with free..". Infinite Records and Vinyl Edge also were great...

    Shout out to the original Record Exchange on Westheimer. First, if not only, place that allowed you to open LPs to sample without buying. Discovered 4AD there to become the first DJ in Houston to play any of their bands on the air. One of my only claims to fame.

    ^^ yes, Vinyl Edge. I'd trek over there to buy Sleater-Kinney on release day, and without fail they'd have it blasting as I walked in.
