Also, you can sometimes get good prog for cheap at thrift stores, garage sales etc, but you need to know how to look at records and judge the quality, otherwise you might get something scritchy.

Prog music, like electronic music, in chicago is non-exsistant. The few shops that are left, even when there where a plethora of them, never stocked prog/electronic music. Oh, you may be lucky and find an odd title here and there or they MIGHT stock the more well known artists but, all you'll find is indie,[c]rap and hip hop sh*te. I'll tell you, thank god for the internet, because if I had to rely on scouring the local shops, I'd never find a tenth of what I've purchased off the web.
