Who sells a perfect copy of the Xanadu motion picture soundtrack? What's wrong with you? 2. Only the best record store on the entire west coast would know to buy a copy of the Xanadu motion picture soundtrack. And there you have it. Music Millennium is the best record store on the entire west coast. Oh sure, I have about 5,000 other reasons, but that's the most recent one. I've yet to pay a visit and walk out without buying at least 3-4 albums. Add the CDs, DVDs, and all manner of other music/movie-related goodness and this place is the gold standard.

Music Millennium has been a trailblazer in the PDX community for decades now and is by far one of…read morethe biggest record shops in the area that I have been to. They are located in the Burnside area where street parking will be your best bet. Inside, they have tons of physical media ranging from vinyls, CDs, DVDs, and more. Prices are very fair here and there is a huge selection. All of the staff are friendly and welcoming. You definitely need to give yourself at least 1-2 hours to really look through everything!

What a super cute concept! As the name suggests, My Vinyl Underground is, well, underground…read more Located inside a small comic/picture book store, descend a small flight of wooden stairs and you find yourself transported into a tiny room with records aplenty. There is quite the wide selection of records, and they also buy records. We brought some of ours to sell, and after inspecting the condition, we were given decently good money back on them. If I have more time in the future, I would definitely go take a deeper look at their offerings. This was a fun little adventure that's worth the trip!

Their rock/r&b section was pretty big but majority of the records were sorted by artist which made it easy to browse. I ended up spending a decent amount of time in the store because I kept finding albums that I rarely find anywhere else. Prices are generally in line with what you'd find online, but if you catch one of their sales, you can score some great deals. The cashier was also incredibly friendly. Love my new tote bag!

The Owner "RILEY" is a Super Nice Guy, and he is Extremely knowledgeable about Music and Movies. JOEL is his brother and is the Owner as well. Their prices on DVD (and some Blueray) movies are as low a $1, though most of his movies are fairly priced, and are Sequenced in "Alphabetical" order. He has a Expansive VARIETY of ALBUMS as well. He even has Music CDS !, and "Hard to Find" Albums, DVDS, CDS and Blu-rays. RILEY (who I met) is just a REALLY GOOD GUY ! He is a "RARE BREED" when it comes to Business Owners these days. Because ALL that they think of is MONEY and are "GREEDY" ! Everybody that came to the Store left HAPPY, with plenty of "Good Finds". While I was there (for Hours) looking through their DVD Selection, I heard EVERYONE telling RILEY how much they Enjoyed his store. This place is a "GEM" ! I Really don't want to share this place, because it's a "Treasure-Trove"...But I will ! THIS PLACE IS "GOLD" !

They cram a lot of stuff into this small shop - CD's, records, DVD's, even a few cassettes and 8 tracks.

They have a reading space and a cafe inside for people who want to spend sometime enjoying their reading.
