And since we celebrated our 30th Anniversary in 2010, we decided to ask our employees for their Top 5 albums from 1980-2010! Yep, we threw the gauntlet down! We feel very fortunate to have been a record store for the past 30 years and having heard so much Music, so we figured we should try and come up with pivotal albums over the past 3 decades. The 80s, 90s, 00s and into the future, we will always be thankful to share music with all of our friends, customers and family!
Enjoy our favorites and make sure to stop by your local ZIA and we'll be sure to have a bunch of recommendations when you visit us! See you all soon! And remember...ZIA loves you!
