Most of the local independent record stores in Atlanta that I have visited employ rather friendly staff.
You won't find the typical NYC snobbery here in The A especially at Criminal Records.
Selection - Great
Staff recommendations - Great
Stock - Great
Friendliness - Awesome!
Shopping ease - Not-so-great
One must view most CDs through a giant glass counter that separates the store employees from the customers. It's challenging to browse for something in a relaxed way especially if you don't know what you're looking for.
Other than that - 4 stars!
