I used to frequent this store on a regular basis to sell CD's and pick up something cool. It was such a great store with lots of vinyl, CDs, cassette tapes, and music memorabilia. I was surprised to see that it moved from its large store front to a small space around the corner and entrance is by appointment only. However, you can shop online and browse the diverse collection of rare and mint condition pieces at your leisure. No doubt you'll find some coveted pieces like an autographed Nine Inch Nails guitar for $1,750.00.

Highest recommendation!

Their videos are organized by how a cinema fan's mind works. By category, by country, by director. John Woo movies in the Hong Kong director's section. Hou Hsiao-Hsien in Taiwan. There's classic porn from the 70s, 80s and 90s. There are Criterion discs. There are John Huston movies, Godard movies, Wim Wenders and David Lynch. Dario Argento horror movies. Sci-fi. Pre Sci-fi. Post Sci-fi. Brazilian. African. Silent films... I could go on and on. If you are looking for an obscure out of print classic film that's not on streaming, there's an 80% chance that you can find it here to rent. There is street parking nearby. The problem? I live in OC and this place is in Mount Washington/Montecito Heights. So if I move down there, I'll be renting some unheard of movies, that's for sure!

They called me to let me know that they would ship my order out with no trouble and I received it the next day, instead of me having to wait 3 days to go back in-store for a late pick up. Amazing customer service and well-appreciated. In general, very great environment and I always walk out with more than I need and that's because the place is a treasure cove - if I could I would spend hours there. All the staff work really hard to make sure I am able to get what I need when available or make great suggestions that always appeal to what I'm looking for. Always a joy to visit! Thanks Cobraside!

I was looking through a box that was right in front of him, rather than telling me that the records hadn't been priced before I looked through the box for 10 minutes, he waited until I grabbed a record and kept walking into the store to stop me and rudely ask me where I got the record from, and to put it back. The box was right in front of him. He saw me walk in and stop to look in that box. I proceeded to put the record back into the box and he told me that there was a section somewhere further in the store where I could find that same record. I walked a little further down the store but my enthusiasm to keep shopping faded away from that rude and verbally aggressive interaction. It doesn't take much to be a kind person. I was so excited to go into this store as I'd been eyeing it for a while, but I won't be going there any longer.

And while we didn't find the particular albums that we were looking for, we were blown away by the sheer ambiance and amount of product they do possess. Being a child of the 70's and '80s, we could have looked through their collection for four or five hours easy since I think those were the greatest decades of music with artist who not only achieved legendary status, but even one hit wonders that what have you going back into time. In fact, we were joking with the staff that we easily could have opened and closed the place down by doing an entire day shift right alongside them! The place really blows you away from a 5 senses standpoint as well. The sights, sounds, and smells all hit you at once-and in here and on this occasion, that was a great thing. If you follow a little hallway it leads you into a completely different section into what seems like a another small universe or at least galaxy. Once on the other side of this hallway which leads you to another portion of the building entirely, your met with even more records and additional musical and odd treasures. To top it off, a bar with alcohol awaits you! Lol You can't make this place up! Bottom line here folks is this is a really cool, cool place-especially for those who love classic music, a good beer, and the idea of hunting for what you want. I'd highly recommend this place....just be prepared to put in some serious time for research and for your senses to be able to take it all in.
