So sorry to learn of your demise. visiting Sams for new music was a big contribution to my and my husbands happy marriage, from the 60s to the 90s. thanks.

I recommend this place.

Sam's also contains a cafe with coffee, espresso, iced cream and sandwiches, and in the summer they have a huge barbecue menu being served outside on their patio. The staff is great, with different people manning the grills every summer. There's also free wi-fi throughout the cafe and the store.

I recommend this place.

The prices here are a bit higher than what you'd pay at any of the big chain music stores, but Sam's has a lot of hard-to-find music and DVDs. Their classical section is excellent, with a very knowledgeable staff.

I recommend this place.
