Hey guys:
I was about to email the list to get your collective input on record stores in Montreal when--OOPS--someone just did the same thing for Toronto! I feel like a bit of an ass being so Canadian-tourist-destination centric, but I do really want to know!
I went to Montreal only once, in 2001 (literally the weekend before september 11, actually). I loved the city, but it seemed a bit bereft of good music stores. Other than the standard Sam the Record Man (which seemed to be a shadow of its supposedly formerly-great self), HMV, and Archambault stores, I think I encountered only two tiny used shops, neither of them housing much of a collection. I'm going back this Memorial Day weekend, and I was wondering if you guys know of any good record stores that I should make it a point to hit? I'm staying right downtown, kind of near McGill, but we're driving so I can go anywhere really. If I can get 2 or 3 really killer ones that'd hit the spot. --Jason
