Radiohead Vinyl Rocks Indie Retail

Don Van Cleave of the Coalition of Independent Music Stores  reports  in his weekly email that Radiohead's "In Rainbows" was his favorite album of the year and notes "Many of our customers bought the vinyl after listening to crappy
small MP3's on ear buds for three month's. Hopefully when they put it
on the table they might actually notice how amazing this record really sounds."
"In Rainbows' topped the vinyl and over CIMS charts for the week ending Jan. 6

1 Radiohead "In Rainbows"
