3. The Extended Play Album minor threat (first demo tape) An EP is normally not more than six songs or less than 30 minutes. I learned this back in 1992 when I started to DJ.

4. The Long Play Album Aaliyah (ultimate compilation) An LP is normally seven songs and higher or longer than 30 minutes. I learned this back in 1992 when I started to DJ.

5. A Research Question: Jin (clerk) 1. Do you offer consignment to indie artists? No one prints on Vinyl, CD, or cassette for them to even offer it. 2. How often do marketing reps visit from the record labels? Never, we are a buy and resale shop. We do order some new things from labels but never a visit from them.

6. Events:

7. Exclusives:   They do not, as they are primarily a resale record shop Most of the inventory is bought at auctions not given by the artist.

8. SWAG

9. Promos

10. Reflection:   I would use it to do a release party. We would offer food as we play the entire EP/LP and have a 2-hour party afterward.
