Those who are still grooving to Dad’s turntable, take note. Just steps from the Yard, a ragtag band of independent record stores serves the most musically sophisticated—or technologically outdated—Cantabrigians. Specializing in new and used CDs and vinyls at discount prices, these stores carry everything from early 1930s Jazz to the latest in underground techno.

What he wound up with is not only a stand-up routine for smart people who own a coffee table but a history of American culture.
