Actually bought some Xmas LP’s in 2002! Still regularly buying electronica; I see a little bit of eBay; lots of Canterbury Records, Pasadena; some Amoeba Hollywood; some mail-order from Australia; Record Surplus; a visit to the swap meet. Barely bought just a touch over 2 records per day for December, 2002.
