Description

The hangar-size emporium, the sister store to two locations in the Bay Area, has an awe-inspiring selection of music, DVDs and posters and is also the site of free in-store concerts. Solomon Burke, the Flaming Lips, Patti Smith, Paul Westerberg, Neko Case, PJ Harvey, the Raconteurs, Ceci Bastida and Paul McCartney are among the many performers who've played on Amoeba's small stage. The store rests above an underground parking lot, and there's more parking in a small lot just down the block.

Not only is the store constantly well-stocked with new and vintage records in everything from house to jazz, but it's also one of the few places you can still buy new CDs on the day of their release.

  • 2008 | Best L.A. Record Store

    It's a music retail ghost town, yes. We don't need to be reminded.
