But I can’t read it (of course). www.petsounds.co.jpMaybe our friend Wata can describe a tour? The store certainly has some elite customers! Reminds me of JP’s similarly named store in Newcastle of which I have fond memories. |

It's apparently an "old-fashioned" style record shop located in Tokyo, Japan, and has been run by Tsutomu Mori, a longtime Beach Boys fan, since 1981.
Although I've never visited there, I've always known the store, so I guess it's well-known among Japanese fans. Seems like a great place to visit.

There is a map and an address on the site. Just had to blindly hit buttons I couldn't understand to find it.
Are they really CD-only, or do they sell vinyl too? Hard to tell with Google Translate.

Wow, thanks for posting that! My band practices one stop away from where this place is, I’ll definitely be checking it out.
If anyone (Wata particularly!) knows any other cool shops a Beach Boys fan living in Tokyo should check out, please share.

Here’s what I am wondering:
1 - Do they do mail order overseas and
2 - regardless, could someone able to navigate the site possible post a link to their Beach Boys listing (or search results)?

Here’s what I am wondering: 1 - Do they do mail order overseas and They ship overseas, but I'm not sure if they accept transaction in English. You can ask them via e-mail by clicking " こちらのメールアドレス" in the left bar of the page: www.petsounds.co.jp/ordertop.htmlClick "ビーチ・ボーイズ関連" (the seventh row from above) on the left bar of the same page. Note that the items on the page aren't everything that they have - they specify that they have unlisted stuff, and I think you can ask them about it via email above. |

I have a friend who translates Japanese texts into English for a living and may enlist his help too (it’s a good excuse to head out for a beer!). |
