My brother and I used to shop there frequently in the late 70s, as we lived several miles away. Back then it was a goldmine for import singles from The Jam, Elvis Costello, Clash, etc.

I still have a Looney Tunes T-shirt. At a Stray Cats concert I held it up and Brian Setzer recognized it and gave it a thumbs up. Obviously he knew about the store since he grew up nearby. Its nice to see that it is still thriving.

"Sounds" in New York (located at St. Marks) has been probably open for at least 20 years if not more. They also still carry some vinyl.

I didn't even know Looney Tunes was still open myself. I haven't been there in 20 years or so. But like Marv, I am going to take a ride over there and check it out.
