Pretty much a 50/50 mix of vinyl and cds. I couldn't really figure out how everything was filed, but there were a lot of racks with random LPs, as well as the usual alphabetic stuff. A LOT of cool and weird albums at low prices. I would've found a lot more bargains if I'd had more time, I know it! All the same, I managed to grab a fair few 60s GroupSounds platters. Staff wore uniforms (in the style of a large DIY store) and were really friendly - though they might have just been humouring me ("have you seen that english guy who keeps asking for the old Japanese records?").
HOW TO GET THERE
Leave Shibuya station via the "HachikÅ" exit, walk to the famous big zebra crossing thing, and aim towards the large yellow arrow. The arrow is just on this photo, not there in real life - but I wouldn't be surprised if they get a real one soon.
... keep walking right up this street...
... and turn right here, just a short side street...
... turn left into the main street, and walk down with the HMV on the left...
... take the right fork. Enjoy the sight of the Police Box, that looks a bit like a giant robot owl...
... and there it is on the left, the Beam Building, looking like a large filing cabinet or similar office furniture. Or maybe an electric heater.
... RECOfan is on the 4th floor, or "4F" as they say in Tokyo. Say hello from me.
