I'm not the sort of person that would normally visit a small specialist music shop like Avalanche. I do love music though, and have my iPod on at some point nearly every day. I decided to break my duck in this area, and popped in just a few days ago.\n\nInside, this place is a welcome change from the HMV of this world. The selection is varied, with prices starting from very low. They have some of the chart CDs, and a selection of vinyls and LPs as well. I will be making sure to come in here for my next music purchase.\n\nA couple of things that I noticed on my visit. Firstly, there was no music playing in the background, which is surely something that you'd expect from a music shop. Secondly, the guy in there was on the phone during the whole time I was in the shop, even serving a customer whilst maintaining the conversation. I can't be sure if this was a particularly important call or not, but I'm sure he could have put the phone down to look after his customers.\n\nThis is a minor quibble however, as the other reviewers all speak so highly of this place. Judging by the sign on the front, they're going to be relocating soon, but I'm sure that music fans across the city will be able to enjoy Avalanche for a long time yet.\n\n[Insert suitable avalanche-based pun.]
