I can remember a time when Tower Records was "The Shit". But that was a while back early to mid 80's. Bought a lot of rare import stuff there that you couldn't get in the US at the time. Some of it you still can't get here - like early U2 singles which were only released in Ireland. It was well worth the gas and the half-hour trip it took me to get to the Tower Records in Tacoma. And I'd hit the Mercer Street or U-district stores if I happenned to be in Seattle. Never left that store empty handed.
But that was the 80's. Tower let themselves become irrelevant in the 90's. The Tacoma store closed and the others stopped carrying the kind of selection they had before . They turned into just another record store and that's when they started to die.
Bummer, but not at all surprising, to hear that they're going downEat Us And Smile

I hope they get bought by someone and continue to operate.
That is where I buy all my music mags, DVDs, jewel cases, CDs, and where I drool over the hot chick working the cash register.
