An old-school record store. They have an excellent inventory & the prices are fair. The storefront is very unassuming, but once inside you will find gems. Go!

The “Chicago” guy was a bit rude on querying him probably cause I didn’t engage in bs and walk out like the two who followed.
Very small jazz section (2 bins) kind of an after thought. Overpriced!
Spent a bit of time here carefully looking but no luck will not be back.

Disorganized and displays items not for sale. Don’t have vintage display items out in a vintage store if you’re not willing to sell them. I would have dropped around $500 on items that were displayed but not priced or were there “just for show. ” My visit was disappointing.

Same famous record shop in Park Slope, Brooklyn, NY, but with a new, younger owner, Ryan. Cool, friendly cat that's helpful. If he doesn't have it, he can order it. The shop is always getting new and used vinyl on a daily basis. His prices are good and he'll definitely work with you. He has great $1 records out front and I've found some good bargains and albums I took a chance on for a buck. He also has 45's, CD's and DVD's. The shop has a very old school feel, and I dig that. He's very house music friendly, but also has a lot of classic rock, jazz, r&b & rap vinyl. Tell him Michael & Mindy Louis sent ya.

Large selection of vinyl, pretty steep prices in my opinion. The people working were talking unkindly of a customer as soon as he walked out the door which really turned me off. Having worked in retail, I get it.but please wait until your store is empty to complain about annoying customers.

This place is a joke and the owners are rude and disrespectful. Don't do business here!

Great spot to check out what’s hot, what’s new and what’s old. I get stuck there for hours.

This store is so amazing that I almost want to keep it a secret. I felt so welcome and at wade looking around. Prices are totally reasonable And the selection is outstanding. I didn’t know what I wanted but found myself leaving with 7 cassette tapes that I am so excited about. I’m going to stock up on vinyl my next trip!
