What customers say

i couldn't tell if the record shop has been open recently according to another review they stated that it wasn't. i was in the area and stopped by to take a look but they were closed. i had visited in the past and enjoyed it's inventory and selection they always had.

I remember walking into their shop when it was in a house off of Walnut, I bought my first LP there and was introduced to great music thanks in part to my mom. You can't possibly walk into this store intent upon purchasing one item, unless you're getting stickers --- good luck buying just one --- and not walk out with…

Excellent, excellent record shop! The owner is so nice! I came in and found a great selection of records. Anything you want, he can order for you. What is so great about this spot is the history of the business and the huge variety. Also...some of the best record prices I've seen.

First time visiting this record store I was amazed of the amount of selections. I came for getting few records and whoever who helped me thank you I forgot to ask his name had been helpful, patience in selecting jazz records for me. I ended up with a couple great rare records with half or even lower of the price.
