It's just a bright yellow box with a parking lot attached. Spend your time saving LA indie institutions like Rhino Records or Aron's Records. I've got no nostalgia for Tower in general, much less this particular location (though I did spot Chris Rock in there once...my first celeb sighting ever!).</p> <p>If you ask me, most of the Sunset Strip could use an overhaul. It's outgrown the "seedy rock & roll glamour" phase and is now just a novelty for tourists and hip LA clubsters.</p> I’m saddened by the extinction of the record store, but come on – you’re trying to make a historical monument out of the Tower on Sunset?

If you ask me, most of the Sunset Strip could use an overhaul. It’s outgrown the “seedy rock & roll glamour” phase and is now just a novelty for tourists and hip LA clubsters.
