Bay Area people: where to get vinyl?

Well I live in Modesto, went to Amoeba music yesterday and saw a really poor selection of trance in their vinyl section. Would have gone to Rasputin but I had to get home. Today I hit up Hot Topic at our local mall and was surprised to find Dave Gahan - Dirty Sticky Floors for 2 bucks.
So anyways, I was wondering what stores you guys go to to get your vinyl. Besides the online stores, of course. Anything in the Bay Area or Modesto area would be great.

I'm actually looking for the same thing myself... :stongue:
I went to Streelight Records in San Jose, and they had a decent selection of hip-hop, and enough jungle and downtempo to keep me happy for a while, but I hadn't heard of a single song in the house/dance section (no specific trance section :mad: ), so I was going by familiar artist names.
And I pretty much cleared them out. (4 records) :D
At least they had good prices. (I was looking for Super Duck Breaks for that cheap for months... :cool: )
I also tried to go to a place called The Record Man in Redwood City, which advertised an Annex called "DJ Store"...
Found Record Man, found dumb employees who couldn't tell me where the annex was, or if it even existed. :whip: |

Thanks, anyone else?
I'm willing to go to SoCal stores too, I go down there every so often. |

| Try Solid Grooves in Santa Clara. I go there all the time. Their trance selection is pretty piss poor but they got the selection of progressive house and breaks. |

Thanks vhx1.
Anyone else? I'm mostly into trance, but I enjoy almost all forms of electronica, so any stores that sell techno like Carl Cox plays, or house like DJ Heather, or Prog like Sasha/James Holden would be great. Even DnB like High Contrast. |

| Freq 8 sucks. its small but it does have trance. Its quite hard to find good trance in record stores. Amoeba seemed to have the widest selection but its really hard to find stuff. Solid Grooves is prolly the best store i've seen around since they have TT's where you can listen to the records. |

Higher Source in Hunnington Beach - don't know if it still exists!?
Groove Riders on Ventura Blvd. - weak selection of trance, though.
...and my personal fav., the Amoeba in Hollywood. i think it has a
much better selection of trance than in norcal, and the prices are
just right :rolleyes:
