In Memory - Sam's on Yonge and Dundas

It was among the landmarks along Yonge Street in Toronto, not too far from the Eatons Center. This Sam store is famous for carrying virtually every available records that you would like to have but probably not able to get it elsewhere. For those who hunt for classic releases, will probably have better luck find them hiding at one corner in Sam-the-Recod-Man. If not, one can even request a special order from its friendly staff, who did well in helping their clients.

We used to frequent the shop few times a quater for new albums and singles. I found the "Delta Force" original sound tracks here as everywhere seemed to have shortage of supply. Whenever walking past the shop, wouldn't miss the chance to pop in for a quick look-around.

It was sad to see the shop closed down for good 2 years ago. It's a legacy. I was told that it maintains a branch open in Belleville, though???!
