With the closing of the late, lamented Star Classics, the classical annex of this place takes on a new importance. Although the overall selection of new-only music at here may be less extensive than in Towers of other towns, the show tunes and dance sections here are unparalleled. Finally, the unbelievably generous hours make Tower as much of a hangout as a shopping destination. In fact, even with the Virgin Megastore in dowtown San Francisco, many locals consider this their CD headquarters.

Classical store meets modernism...

"I remember not that long time ago going here to buy a U2 CD. They have such a big selection of the new music, and it’s far greater than some of the other Tower records. This store has been around for a long time. If you want to peruse the entertainment section, you will find a long list of things that might catch youyr attention. This store prides themselves on their entertainment section. Although it does get sometimes crowded in here, and even the lines can be a little bit long, when you get home and play the music you’ve been dying to hear all day, it kind of makes up for any nuisiance you had to go through. this place is not too far from some of the hotels, so travelrs can enjoy this neck of the woods, too. The staff is very friendly, and they try to help you find what they can, even if they don’t know your style of music too well."
