nadine's music

Hollywood, CA

 

When I took this photograph, I didn't know anything about Nadine's Music -- I just liked the sign, particularly how there are plugs incorporated into the design, in the neon at the beginning and end of "Nadine's". I grew up surrounded by guitars and amplifiers, so I sure appreciated the thought and artistry that went into that design choice.

 

I have subsequently learned that Nadine's Music opened in 1975 and was known as a store "for musicians by musicians". The store specialized in vintage guitars and customers included Eric Clapton, Bob Dylan, and one of my favourites, Joe Walsh. Sadly, the store is permanently closed now.
