The above mentioned are great stores! I got a very nice CD of Tommy Johnson's 1928 - 1929 recordings from Down Home when out there this May.

There used to be an even greater store in San Francisco called Jack's Record Cellar. It was in the "Western Addition" but I can't recall exactly where. He had the most fantastic collection of old records I have ever seen and his prices were within reason. 78's, 33-1/3's, 45's and tapes and even some cylinders!

Jack (as I called him, that may not have been his real name) was a true San Francisco character. He had been a soldier of fortune of sorts during the 1930's, in Central America. I don't know if he is still alive (possibly not) or if his store is still in existance. If it is still around it is well worth the search and a visit.
