What customers say

Dolly and I found an ORIGINAL album cover artwork by Barbara Kruger!!! It was $5! Pretty cool & cute record shop. I enjoyed the music they played while shopping. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

One of my top favorite stores in the country and definitely my favorite in NOLA. Cash only. You’ll find loads of music from across the world and some folk, blues, jazz and rock. I struggle to find original pressings of Middle Eastern music on vinyl & this shop gets that on the regular (full length as well as 45’s).

★★★★★ — Plus, 2022-06

Go for the records and the neighborhood vibe, stay for the hotdogs. The Sonoran dogs pair well with Simple Dreams by Tucson’s own, Linda Ronstadt. The Chicago-Style dogs (to be frank, needed more pickles) are heightened by Windy City native, Donnie Hathaway’s Live album.

★★★★★ — S.B., 2025-07

One of the best record shops I've ever been to. Extremely well curated with all genres, but I especially love the reggae sections, both 45s and LPs. I have never been to a shop in the states that has such a great and expansive reggae selection.
