One of the great music and video stores in the country.

I defy you to leave empty-handed. I make it a point to visit every time I'm in the area, and I'm never disappointed.

I was planning to purchase an upright piano and I am planning to buy it here. Upon reading the reviews, I think that they are a good music store.

As a musician, I don't settle for instruments with poor quality. They got good guitars here. I can tell not only by the brand but also by experience.

Worlds Greatest Record Store!!!



This is the worlds greatest record store... hands down. In my travels I have been to a lot of records stores and since the corporations took over most stores in the 80's and now the digital age has since closed most of them, it is nice to still have a place to thumb through some old albums and talk music with others who have the same love for the old school record store.
