Yo Jon,
What Jazz records you pushin?
In addition to the shops he mentions, there is another Reckless location
farther north - on Broadway at Belmont - that is quite a bit bigger and I
think noticably better. Especially if you're looking for jazz. Also
important to note for jazz is Jazz Record Mart
(
http://www.jazzmart.com/jrm.home.htm) - they'll have everything you're
looking for - from King Oliver to Evan Parker - it's a very big store. If
you're looking for vinyl or even just browsing with an interest in jazz,
give yourself a few hours - I've found there's no such thing as a quick
trip to JRM. (I think I remember the original poster being interested in
jazz; if not, my apologies).
