What customers say

Best record store in the area. These guys always have some cool stuff, and they ask very fair prices. The guys behind the counter are friendly and knowledgeable. The store also has a cool 70s vibe to it. One of the gems of carbondale. Way better than hardcopies.

Marcus of Plaza Records is a gentleman and a scholar. He supports and respects independent artists. He ordered my records and paid for them as soon as he received them. I did not have to chase him down for the order and I definitely did not have to chase him down for payment. This is a dream customer.

Love browsing at this vintage shop for some vinyls. The gentlemen & lady whom work there are so friendly and helpful. There is something about that beautiful sound coming from a record player with some candles lit on a cold winters night. It just feels magical and this shop helps me find new vinyls for my collection.

Visited as a high school student, college student and 30+ yrs later, still a lover of vinyl records. Really fun to share the digging tradition with my kids. Heres to many more years of success!
