Captain Cloud's Guide to Online Music Stores
Last Revised:

Here is a decent attempt at listing many great stores for purchasing Space
Rock, Drone, and other psychedelia. Most have online catalogs and online ordering. Note
that some are based overseas, with consequent currency conversion issues and higher
postage.
NOTE THAT THIS LIST IS NOW RATHER OLD AND SOME OF THESE STORES ARE NO LONGER IN BUSINESS
OR THE LINKS MAY BE OUT-OF-DATE!
