Archambault 677 Ste-Catherine W. Montreal 514 875-5975

A classy tribute to French music, this Quebecois power-company puts its competitor HMV on the run. With a much more relaxed atmosphere, personable staff and countless listening centres, the Archambault experience is ultimately refreshing. Don’t worry; they don’t only carry French music. You can find all your popular hits and your underground musical fetishes for a competitive price. Just ask the ‘monsieur’ behind the counter.
