This is my favorite record store! Its a tiny space packed with vinyls, and good music playing (you can request they play something of yours too). The staff are generally pretty honest about the price and taste of what youre about to pick up. Ive seen…More »

Other than the fact that they too carry vinyl and tickets, I have no idea why this place is consistently compared to Zulu in these other reviews. So on that note, this place is not Zulu Records. There, moving on.

Scratch is a great place to find local…More »

Is it weird to say I liked their old space better? The typical 4 walls covered in vinyls and shelves and shelves of vinyl really seemed like nothing special, but when I went record shopping I wanted to listen, not see. And they (still) have a lot of…More »

Theres not a lot that you cant find in any of the other record stores on these shelves, unless youre talking about prices. They have ridiculous prices on every selection, meaning youre not coming here to impulse buy that beat up, hardly playing copy…More »
