Looks small from the outside, but has an impressive amount of records in various genres. Nice selection of Classical, with many DG pressings in pretty good condition. Some of the prices are a bit steep (especially jazz), but there are some good deals to be had as well.

I absolutely love this vinyl shop. It's probably the best in the South Bay. Great selection of records from every genre and country imaginable, organized impeccably according to year, etc. A collectibles section is particularly rewarding to browse. Staff is always so chill and helpful and the vibes are warm and classic with a great selection of records on rotation (twice I've been there Sgt. Pepper played, which is always "getting better all the time".) Has all the charm of a local hole in the wall with people who really care about music. I am addicted. Will return often.

Great place to be if you are a music enthusiast. Friendly staff. Awesome vinyl collection for great prices. Even some of the older ones in boxes below turned out to be in G/VG condition. Prepare to spend at least 30-45mins searching for music you love. Definitely recommend this place if you are getting started on a vinyl collection.

Nice shop, wide variety. Most impressed by trade in value. I took a handful of records to another local shop and was offered $15 in cash, $18 in trade value, which seemed super low. I then brought the same records here and was offered $45 cash and $60 in trade value. This shop offers the best value for trading in records in at least the South Bay area. I'll be back!
