Amoeba Music
Overview: THE grandaddy of music stores in Hollywood and Los Angeles in general, Amoeba Music on Sunset Blvd drums up an enormous beat of music and dvds. Amoeba Music deserves to be the L.A.’s most trendy music store because of its sheer volume of music. You will likely find any kind of music, or dvd for that matter, you want – from rare jazz to classical, “I’ve never heard of these guys” indie to pop.
The cool glass exterior draws attention to this legendary music store. So do the throngs of people. People watching at the store is just as much of the experience as browsing around this mega superstore. Be forewarned: you may get lost in the store (maybe you should), if not the music.
