| - I have shopped record stores in L.A., San Diego, Seattle and New York. Stinkweeds is by far the best I have ever had the pleasure of shopping in. I am one of the lucky ones who has been a customer since the store first opened and I have never had anything but the best service.
The staff, particularly the wondrous Ms. Cates is top-notch. Whether it's the newest disc from Neko Case or an obscure CD from a Scandanavian hurdy gurdy band, I can count on Stinkweeds to get me whatever I want.
Don't even get me started on Stinkweeds' owner, Kimber. She is my hero. A more engaged and caring person, you could not care to meet. Tell her what bands or records you like and she will come up with 5 more for you to buy. When you get them home, I can practically guarantee they will become your new favorites. The only time I am disappointed with something I get at Stinkweeds is when I fail to listen to Kimber or the other staff members.
Kimber is also a maven of the local music scene. She has concerts at her store and nearby gallery and is devoted to promoting worthwhile bands, local and otherwise. If you want to know what is happening on the music scene, trot down to Stinkweeds. If you are too lazy to make the trip, you can check out new releases on Stinkweeds' website and find out who is coming in concert on Kimber's other website, silverplatter.com.
It's for real baby, the total package. Check it out.
