I don't know about you, but the thought of stepping into a shopping mall this weekend with everyone losing their minds over last-minute holiday deals makes me want to curl up on the couch take a big old nap. Shopping for records and other musical paraphernalia at local stores, however? That I can handle.

If you're shopping for the music fans on your list, there are plenty of options at locally owned and independent stores here in the Twin Cities. Read on for plenty of Minnesota-made suggestions, with a little something for everyone.

For the mom who has every Mumford and Sons album

On a budget: Get the new Trampled by Turtles album Live at First Avenue, which is available on both DVD and CD.

If you're splurging: Make it a gift basket! Start with the Trampled by Turtles album and throw in Taj Raj's new EP, Fine Hearts Alive, Frankie Lee's Middle West, and tickets to Pert Near Sandstone's Winter String Band Gathering at the Cedar.

For the audiophile, crate-digger, or collector

On a budget: Grab the CD version of the Numero Group compilation Purple Snow: Forecasting the Minneapolis Sound, which digs into all the great funk and soul bands that were active around the time Prince's career began.
