    Came through in my way to Chicago, decent selection and good prices. They used the small space very…read morewell and had a very chill aesthetic. Jesse was very nice and recommended a new album based off what I liked. He was very nice and humble and it was easy to talk to him. I will be coming back! -Cy

While I love digging through the stacks at local record shops, I have experienced much better. I've been through quite a number of fantastic record stores in my lifetime, so I have expectations on how a record store should be (even for smaller and newer shops that may just be starting out). I root for local record stores and encourage them to do their best. I've been here, Record Swap, and Exile, and I find Record Swap is the best one. Let me start off by saying I did leave with the purchase of two records today. The shop wasn't terrible, but I do think it was lacking a bit. I understand building up a quality stock takes time, but given the amount of time this store had been around, I expected just a little more. Some selections are spot on with the prices, while other selections aren't worth the $5+ as they look like they've been pulled from thrift stores and $1 bins elsewhere. The layout of the store was decent for the size space, but how the stock was "organized" was honestly a bit of a choppy mess. For the size store, I'd honestly shrink down the "new arrivals" spot significantly and put the items where they're supposed to go. This will make browsing so much smoother (only bring in a bigger new arrivals spot when you've got much more merchandise coming in). Do away with the boards you've got taking up a wall. You may have a passion about them, but they don't belong in a record store, nor will people use Google to look you up if they're in the market for a board... it's just not expected to be found in that type of store. Use that space for more music merchandise, which is expected to be found in this store. Move your cash register to the bar that was built into the spot. This makes the extra merchandise ready for sale behind bar moved to another spot and easier to get to. These are just some of the key changes that could made to make this shop 100x better, instead of adding injury to your name, and will help you take off.

    There should be two reviews... one for the AM, one for the FM…read more The AM side is excellent. They have a good mix of national shows and local productions. The meterologists are great. I could do without all the agricultural information (especially during weekday afternoons), but I understand it has value. Ok and there have been times when I've thought about calling up and promising to pledge lots of money if they'd just get rid of "Says You." I hate that show...those people just seem annoying. But I really do appreciate the AM programming a lot. I dinged a star on this review because of the FM side. I swear that whoever does their programming has no sense of when they should play sleepy music (you know... when the majority of listeners are trying to relax at the end of the day) versus peppier music (you know... when most of us are waking up). And pieces from British operas entitled something about "Why so pale and wan?" Really? That doesn't need to be on the radio and not at 7 in the morning on Monday. I'd also like to hear more variety. I know they shake up the lineup on Friday and Saturday nights, but I'd like to hear *more* jazz programming throughout the week. Not just classical.

They also air National Public Radio and local news. Their weather forecasts were done by an actual meterologist, not just a card reader. They offer streaming and podcasts.
