Haven't been to the physical shop, but it looks like a lovely place to browse. I had an excellent experience ordering via their Discogs shop. As I live in EU, I focussed on titles that are hard to find here - had a nice couple of hours exploring. Lots of nice surprises and generally much more reasonable prices than Europe, especially for US only releases. Also exchanged several messages with Paul who never got tired of answering my questions. Very friendly vibes. Delivery was impossibly fast - shipped on Wednesday morning, received Friday evening, very safely packaged. Descriptions were entirely accurate. Paul also added a couple of bonus singles of local Chicago bands, great music I probably never would have found otherwise. Looking forward to ordering again sometime. Thank you very much!
Incredible selection from all genres of music. The shop owners are extremely knowledgeable and very friendly.
A cozy, well curated gem of a record store. Dave Baker and Paul Nixon’s hand picked vinyl inventory includes used treasures as well as new music from artists stretching the boundaries. If you are a fan, a collector or just someone with a curious mind for sound, this musical oasis is for you. Proud to patronize this truly independent business.
