- News 8’s Loren Nancarrow went to Tower Records in the Midway area and was there at 11 am on December 14th when a store employee requested patrons take part in the worldwide moment of silence. Beatles records were suddenly hot and sales were way up. Double Fantasy was selling for $5.99 but was going to be raised to $6.99 the following week. MORE: www.cbs8.com/article/news/loc...
can't believe its been nearly 40 years
I remember Tower Records.
One of the last record stores to fall.
Towards the end, it had become less than friendly to customers parading shoplifters in front of customers with over aggressive plain clothes security guards and as a Ticketmaster outlet.
RIP Tower Records and Camelot Records (where I worked for 3 years)
Well there’s still like 80 stores in Japan lol
It was no accident what happened to John Lennon.
RIP 😔
There's a picture of Phil Collins leaving this Tower Records with some vinyl albums. He was touring with Genesis here Sports Arena. It's a cool picture. Look it up!
John lennon would have been the star of 1981...
Now records can get up into the thousands.. take us back when life was simple

Accident. Yeah...that's the ticket. - Mark David Chapman
The bigger hero in this story is Loren Nancarrow, a bigger icon and nicer person than most in the greatest city ever

Yes, Loren did more than the weather.
It’s very odd that he calls Lennon’s death an “accident,” as if he’d died in a car crash rather than being murdered.
