What customers say

This place is amazing. Incredibly well-curated selection with an owner who knows vinyl and music like few others. Very few 'filler' records, meaning that there are far more gems per square foot than any other record store I've been to in L.A..

★★★★★ — Tod, 2023-05

Never in my life have I found such a density of good vinyl in one shop before. I had to leave soooo many top notch albums behind.. as well as a couple albums from choice artists that I have to go home and research before coming back in to buy... this place is an obscure music lover's paradise.

★★★★★ — Amy, 2024-05

Really cool record store. They had a solid new wave selection, which impressed me as most shops are sorely lacking in this category. Prices are pretty fair and everything is in excellent condition. Owner was very friendly and helpful without breathing down your neck. Highly recommend.

Fantastic little record shop, very easy to access with adequate parking, the shop is small, but vast in its selection! The owner is a really nice guy and it’s a must for any crate digger coming through the area!
