Record shops in Berlin?

Hello Moonies!

Im going to Berlin this weekend and thought that I might buy a few CDs there too... If anyone could give advice for shops with a good selection of prog/fusion-jazz/psych/krautrock CDs, I'd be more than grateful. I already tried to do some googling but I only found a list of dance-music oriented shops in Berlin -.-

Re: Record shops in Berlin?

Hi Lellu,

there is a pretty good CD store on the first floor (2nd in the US) above one of the exits at Zoo Station on the U2 ubahn line. There is a plaza there, and the CD store is at the same end of the plaza as the zoo, but across the plaza. I bought several CDs for the Moon when I was there a little over a year ago

If you can find this somewhat famous church that was damaged in WWII, when you see this view, turn around and the CD shop will be almost directly in front of you


Happy hunting.

But if he turns around, wouldn't the church then be directly behind him?

yes, and he will be facing the record store. The church will no longer matter since its purpose as a reference point will be finished...
