Gillman Pontiac (now Gillman Honda) in 1965 - currently the Houston Press Building at 1621 Milam. Crazy to think that GTOs and Bonnevilles were sold in the lobby.

20 years ago: Morrissey at Record Rack July 29th, 1992, Shepherd and Alabama.
Fresh from his record-breaking first solo world-tour, he nearly caused a riot as 500 people were promised to meet the former Smiths frontman in a rare in-store signing and many more showed up. Proof that this was pre-internet: Not a single mention from any of our local newscasters (many who are still on the air) that Morrissey was ever in a band called The Smiths.(via Old Houston Photos Mashed With Modern Houston, Part 3: Cleaners, Carpets and Chevys)
