What's in Store
Hear Music looks like you'd expect a record store in the Stanford Shopping Center to look: It has rich wood shelving, sleek glass appointments and framed posters.
Listen Here
The major selling point of Hear is that you can listen to anything before you buy it; while this is recently a common practice, Hear was at the forefront of the trend. Listening before buying is especially important at Hear because much of the music sold there doesn't get a lot of radio airplay.
The Selection
The music selection at Hear could be likened to a large puddle--wide but not exactly deep. The store just isn't big enough to house the selection found at other, bigger record stores. However, Hear does have a smart collection of music that dips into both major and lesser-known genres, from world music to rock to Cajun (yes, Cajun).
