That's the one I want! I scored the Stones' "Plundered My Soul" 45 rpm record last year.

Use the city/state instead of zip code options. I searched on my zip and got one store 45 minutes away. Went by city and got five others, all closer.
About three years ago I went to Amoeba in San Francisco on record store day and I bought a couple of cd's and they gave me a giant bag full of magazines, posters, buttons, stickers, vinyl 45's and about 15 cd's all for free!
ZIA records in Las Vegas has so much cool vinyl, especially 7" vinyl.
