Reverb LP is no more

[RickP]

Reverb LP has spun it’s last record...

So begins the notice on the page when you go to Reverb LP today. Apparently, they shut it down February 27, 2020. I’m guessing it’s part of their being bought out by Etsy, and is a bit of bad news for the vintage vinyl shopper. Maybe it’s an opportunity for others to split up that piece of the pie.

Hate it when anything music-related closes the doors for a final time.

Tell me about it, I live 2 blocks from what was one of the original Tower Records locations, which is now a walgreens.

the day they shut down the palais
part of my childhood died

You really got me with that lyric

... the day the music died.

Well I'm not the world's most passionate guy...

But I agree I hate seeing music related traditions disappear.

If this room was to vanish
And the toys of man turned to civilized dust

I'd still remember Reverb LP

On a positive note, you just helped me name my two black SC594s... the Soapbar is Lola, and the 58/15LT is Layla. Perfect!

Pretty girls! Is that a Strat in the background?

+1 for Frampton Comes Alive.

The red one is a Silver Sky. If the picture went a little farther right, there is a Strat next over! Reversed in this pic, but it’s these two:

Indeed you are! It’s great to have so much available to you in a tonal palette, with different pickups, scale lengths etc.
