Hanson Records is a small, curated shop known for its eclectic and carefully selected collection of albums and tapes. It offers a variety of genres, with a special emphasis on avant-garde jazz and electronic music, reflecting the owner’s background as an experimental musician. Visitors often find great, hard-to-find records that remind them of classic college town record shops. The atmosphere is warm, friendly, and unique, making it an enjoyable experience for both casual listeners and dedicated collectors. The shop features a bargain bin with plenty of sweets and uncommon selections at fair prices. Though located in an older building with stairs, the welcoming staff, including the shop dog, make every visit memorable. Hanson Records is a must-visit destination for those exploring Cleveland’s music scene and searching for treasures.
Incredible walking in here not knowing what to expect. A truly eclectic experience. I was transported to a very special place for the duration of my visit. Seeing all of the incredible music offered and a really cool atmosphere really left an impression on me. 5/5 stars!
This is a small shop, with a curated collection of treasures. You'll find most genres represented, but it's a particularly essential destination for listeners who are into the avant-garde end of jazz and electronic music. The owner, Aaron, is himself a noted experimental musician, so you couldn't ask for someone more knowledgeable on the subject. He's also warm, friendly, and a great source of info about upcoming shows in the area.
If in the Cleveland area make time to stop by Hanson. Something for everyone as well as something for a distinct freak. Plenty of sweets in the bargain bin and uncommon selections at fair prices. Shop is the perfect size, lovely with the windows open. Friendly and knowledgeable staff to help you find what you need. Say hello to shop dog Slimey. Up a flight of stairs fyi.
