I have a question for everyone out there that shops for vinyl…I am going to be in New York City in a couple weeks so what are a couple good record stores for me to visit? There has to be some special place you like to go.
I am looking for old vinyl, bootlegs, anything that is Rock from the 70’s, 80’s and even 90’s. Maybe even some Punk would be good. I would even like some old 45’s and some used CDs would also be nice. I am looking for a cool place to get lost in for an hour or so, I think that is all the time my family will allow me to browse around.
I can look stuff up and see what is out there, but what I want are places people have actually been to or heard about. Any advice would be greatly appreciated, just leave me a comment. Thanks in advance.

Bleecker Street Records is the only one I’ve been to (Greenwich Village).

I saw that one. I think there is one other in Greenwich Village that I am going to hit. There is another big one in Brooklyn, I am not sure we will make it over there though. Thanks!

Bleecker St and Tower Records were the only two I was allowed in.
I absolutely loved New York, such an exciting place to be.

Lucky you! I’ve never been so can’t help… think Bleeker Street Records might have closed a year or two ago though?

I can’t tell if it is closed or moved locations.

Not 100% but I seem to remember articles about it closing down.

You have to spoil everything don’t you?! Listen to some happy music for a change, maybe some Milli Vanilli.

Here you go. It closed but apparently all the stock moved to Generation Records which is still around.

There is a joy about holding and looking at the artwork and having something substantial in your hands. I even have one of my daughters hooked on it.
