Description

Beyond the loaded bins, listening stations outnumber those at any other NYC record shop this reviewer has visited, and the staff are kind and approachable—a combination that makes previewing finds easy. The selection spans house, disco, soul, R&B, and jazz, with new pressings from local labels sitting alongside used vinyl. Some visitors feel the attitude undercuts the welcoming, inclusive neighborhood vibe the shop is supposed to project.
