“Best Record shop in DC. Owner is very friendly and knowledgeable.”

Taylor L.

“Took a $25 Uber here from the National Harbor… Worth every penny! This is honestly the best organized and fair-priced record shop I visited while in DC. I hope this shop is forever operational. Keep doing what you’re doing. I dig it!

Taylor F.

“A fantastic record store! I found a lot of great stuff. Tons of good deals to be had in the $1 bin too. Don’t forget to look on the lower shelves! I’m heading straight back here next time I’m in town!

Located below a barber shop, so it’s kinda easy to miss. A truly hidden gem!”

Jim D.

“Proprietor really knew his stuff. There’s a turntable with headphones right there so you can listen to whatever you want before you buy it.

Walked out with a few very hard to find older Go Go records. He said he can’t keep them on the shelves so I was lucky.

Great place. Can spend hours in there if you’re not careful.”
