New at The Rabbit Hole: Cassette Tapes. They Still Contain Treasures, and You Can Always Transfer Them onto CD.

Monday, September 14th, 2009

The era of the cassette may be over for the major record labels, but not for the millions of owners of cassette players out there. Cassettes served us well for a couple of decades there, and they still hold a ton of great music. And, just like LPs, the treasures that cassettes contain can be successfully transferred to CD (a service which The Rabbit Hole is glad to offer, by the way), so that they can live on in the digital age.

In The Rabbit Hole’s new cassette section, located upstairs with the vinyl and CDs, you’ll find a growing collection of cool stuff. We have highly acclaimed and sought-after indie rock of the ’90s like Juliana Hatfield, The Bats, Dinosaur Jr, Chainsaw Kittens, All, The Chills, Magnapop, The Connells, Classic Ruins, Miles Dethmuffen, Pavement, The Verlaines, Sugar, Pavement, even Nirvana’s indie debut, Bleach. These artists made the sound then that shaped the rock & roll on the radio today. We have mainstream, alternative, and progressive rock, easy listening, comedy, and classical, too. Another big batch is arriving soon.

And the big bonus for you, the music fan, is that most are priced in the range of just $2.00. As an added bonus, you can buy any cassette and elect to let The Rabbit Hole professionally transfer it to CD for you for just $5.99 more! Our regular price for this service is just $8.99 per album, which is well less than you’ll find it elsewhere. So, drop by and check out the tapes!

Sometimes the Hits are All You Need

Wednesday, September 2nd, 2009

A big influx of big-time greatest hits packages on CD has arrived at The Rabbit Hole, all previously owned and in great shape, most for just about $6 each. You may not want to seek out every last deep album cut of certain pop artists, but you gotta admit they have a few great tunes you’d like to have. Here’s your chance to grab “best of” collections by Cream, The Beatles, James Brown, Aerosmith, Elton John, Bad Company, Kansas, The Beach Boys, James Taylor, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Elvis Presley, Steve Miller, The Police, Journey, Eric Clapton, and even more that we have in stock right now.

Arriving sometime Saturday, September 5, there’ll be more by the likes of Jimi Hendrix, Rush, Kiss, Creedence Clearwater Revival, The Rolling Stones, KC & the Sunshine Band, Thelonious Monk, and more, so come on down and check them out!
