There is nothing quite like the feeling of thumbing through LP after LP in a dusty old record shop, only to stumble upon some hidden treasure, new obsession or forgotten love. Old Rare New: The Independent Record Shop is an homage to the holy places of music collecting, complete with their particular anecdotes, peculiar characters, and unique environments. Emma Pettit, formerly of the Institute of Contemporary Arts, has traveled across America into these eclectic spaces of musical exchange, interviewing record shop owners, collectors and musicians to provide a rich account of the increasingly rare independent record shop. The shops featured include: Other Music (New York), Aquarius Records (San Francisco), Amoeba Records (California) and Jazz Record Mart (Chicago).
