What customers say
I’ve been coming here for years and it’s one of my favorite places to shop music. Jim is the best most fair honest funny and knowledgeable music buff I know. I always leave feeling excited about my finds.
This is by far one of the best vinyl stores in the area. They have a variety of selections (I have gotten disco, pop, jazz, metal, and beyond) and the prices can't be beat. I have never seen a record here that felt unfairly priced (a lot of places will up-charge just based on popularity, they don't).
Such a great find while visiting Troy this weekend. The owner was very friendly and knowledgeable. We spoke to him for some time about a variety of lesser known performing artists. Prices were fair. We look forward to visiting again.
modest store but very good. all the records i walked out with were unique, in great condition, and easily favorites-to-be. glad to have this jewel of a shop in the capital region. so much fantastic music waiting to be rediscovered.
