Misty Mountain Roc Records & Headshop - 1977

Here is a zoom-in from the previous photo of the headshop with Sharon behind the counter. On top of the stereo speaker to the far left is Led Zeppelin IV, probably playing side 2, song 1 on the turntable. Can you smell the incense burning? Better grab a pack of papers while you're here.

 

Misty Mountain Roc (formerly The Electric Banana) on Stratford Road in the upper level of the Ego Hour hair salon. Claude and Sharon Gantt first opened MMR in the Knollwood Manor Shopping Center in 1973, then moved to the former Electric Banana location in 1975 where they stayed until closing in the early/mid 80's. It was the best record store of it's time.
