These financial statements and the schedules referred to below are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedules based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Musicland Group's Capital Accumulation Plan as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 1995, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Our audit was made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The schedules of assets held for investment purposes and reportable transactions are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements but are supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The supplemental schedules have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

The accompanying notes are an integral part of this statement. 13 THE MUSICLAND GROUP'S CAPITAL ACCUMULATION PLAN NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. DESCRIPTION OF PLAN The following description of the Musicland Group's Capital Accumulation Plan (the "Plan") is provided for general information purposes only and is not a comprehensive description of the Plan. Therefore it does not include all situations and limitations covered by the Plan. Participants should refer to the Plan document, as amended, for more complete information. GENERAL: The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering eligible salaried and hourly employees of The Musicland Group, Inc. (the "Company") who have attained age 21 and completed one year of service, as defined. The Plan also provides certain profit sharing benefits for eligible employees who commenced employment after June 30, 1990 and who have attained age 21 and completed six months continuous employment or one year of service, as defined. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA"). Benefits under the Plan are covered by a trust agreement. In August 1995 the Plan was amended to add an Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP"), effective January 1, 1995, for the purpose of replacing the Company's matching contributions. A. Foster Higgins & Co., Inc., service provider to the Plan, administers the assets of the Plan, directs execution of transactions, directs the trustee to make benefit payments on behalf of the Plan and maintains records for the loans to participants. Piper Trust Company (the "Trustee") serves as the Plan's trustee. NOTE PAYABLE: During 1995, the Company loaned the Plan $9,997,485 through the issuance of a promissory note to purchase 1,042,900 shares of Musicland Stores Corporation common stock ("Musicland Common Stock"). The promissory note bears interest at prime (8.75% at August 10, 1995) adjusted annually on August 10, and is due in ten equal annual principal installments with interest on the unpaid principal. As the Company makes contributions to the Plan, the Plan makes principal payments to the Company and allocates an appropriate percentage of Musicland Common Stock to eligible employees' accounts. The promissory note is collateralized by the unallocated shares held by the Plan. CONTRIBUTIONS: Participants may elect to make pretax salary reduction contributions of up to 17% of annual base salaries. Highly compensated participants are limited to pretax salary reduction contributions of 4% of annual base pay. Annual salary reduction contributions are limited to $9,240 for each participant as required by the Tax Reform Act of 1986. The Company may make an annual 14 THE MUSICLAND GROUP'S CAPITAL ACCUMULATION PLAN NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 1. DESCRIPTION OF PLAN (CONTINUED) matching contribution of zero to 100% of all salary reduction contributions to the extent that such contributions for the plan year do not exceed 4% of participants' earnings. The Company may make an annual profit sharing contribution for eligible employees under an age-and-service-weighted unit allocation formula. Forfeitures greater than administrative costs are used to reduce the Company's matching contributions. INVESTMENT OF FUNDS: Participants may allocate their contributions to any of six investment funds, which are administered by A. Foster Higgins & Co., Inc. As of December 31, 1995, the investment funds were as follows: 1. Collective Stable Asset Fund, a stable asset fund investing primarily in a diversified portfolio of insurance contracts from insurance companies. 2. Income Fund of America, a current income and capital growth fund with balanced investments in stocks and bonds. 3. Aim Charter Fund, a growth and income fund investing primarily in dividend-paying common stocks. 4. 20th Century Growth Investors, an aggressive growth-oriented fund primarily investing in stock of smaller companies which do not pay regular dividends. 5. Templeton Foreign Fund, a fund investing in foreign stocks and securities. 6. Musicland Common Stock, a fund investing in the common stock of Musicland Stores Corporation which is traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "MLG". The Guaranteed Interest Account (8.2%) is a fixed interest fund guaranteed by UNUM Life Insurance Company ("UNUM"). Effective December 31, 1991, the Guaranteed Interest Account was no longer an investment option.

4. TAX STATUS The Plan is a qualified plan under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code. Pursuant to the favorable IRS determination letter dated August 12, 1986, the Plan is exempt from Federal income taxes under Section 501(a) of the Internal Revenue Code. A determination letter has been applied for as a result of the amendments adopted in 1989 and 1993, including those relating to the Tax Reform Act of 1986. A new determination letter will be applied for as a result of the Plan amendment adopted in 1995 adding the ESOP. The Plan sponsor and legal counsel are of the opinion that the Plan meets the IRS requirements and therefore continues to be tax exempt. 18 Schedule I THE MUSICLAND GROUP'S CAPITAL ACCUMULATION PLAN (EMPLOYER IDENTIFICATION NUMBER: 41-1307776) (PLAN NUMBER: 002) ITEM 27a -- SCHEDULE OF ASSETS HELD FOR INVESTMENT PURPOSES AS OF DECEMBER 31, 1995
