Nostalgia, what else can I say? The wealth and history in this record shop is unbelievable. Luis is the owner of Steady Beat Records and a major mover in the L.A. Ska Rocksteady n Reggae scene in the early 90's and till this day. If you know what I'm talking about, then stop by and say hi.

Friendly management and a great mix of classic records, I was able to find a few old house 12” records that brought back fun memories ✌🏼 Will be back.. I highly recommend this spot. AAA+
