A Chicago indie rock institution, I somehow knew of this place even before moving here last year. Upon my first visit, it was mostly what I expected - tons of music to choose from, and a relatively courteous staff. Carrying both used and new compact discs and movies, Reckless is easily the place to go when you're looking for bargains or to find that obscure song you heard on the radio, but can't quite remember who it was by. The only complaint I have is that the selection of actual records is a little disappointing, but I suppose this is true of most 'record' stores these days. But if you're like most and enjoy the small plastic discs you can put in a computer, Reckless is probably the place for all your music needs.
