Friends of Soundtrack will be glad to hear that the owner is close to signing a lease on a new space on Fifth Avenue. The owner likes the space, the price is right, and there might even be room for a cafe in the back (a splendid idea).
The owner is still trying to decide whether it would be better to be north of Union Street near Gorilla Coffee. Apparently, that is the younger, groovier Park Slope. But it sounded like he was leaning toward the space that is south of Union Street.
That space will need a major renovation that will take upwards of two months. Sounds like Soundtrack won’t be back in biz until November at the earliest.
Hopefully when they re-open they’ll actually carry good music instead of the lame selection they now have. It boggles my mind that in Park Slope, a place where a plethora of young musicians reside, there is not one good record/cd store. What a shame.
