This ever-growing independent record store carries a wide assortment of used CDs, records, DVDs, Laserdiscs, memorabilia, and whatever else you're looking for. Whatever, whoever is the way of the Mermaid. 4440 S. Maryland Pkwy. More refined than Copioh, though not by much. Cheaper drinks, some say better too, slightly cliquesh employees.
Crowd runs mainly college, slightly bohemian.
Maybe a little pretentious, maybe a little high-brow, but worth tolerating. And unlike the competition, Jazzed actually fills their airspace with jazz. A quiet, comfortable coffeeshop away from the university or art scenes, but valid in its own way. Great service, good eats and drinks. Live music every Saturday and Sunday.
