    Vey cool vintage vinyl record shop. The even have some cassettes and old TV shirts and jackets around the store. There are also old magazines in the back.

    Looking For some great vinyl.

    You almost miss the store if you are not paying attention or utilizing your GPS. But once you find it you know you have found a record shop. With staff who know what they are selling. The space has some awesome vintage tees and clothing. But their main business is the incredible vinyl collection. This gem of a store has a huge selection of vinyl from every genre of music. I asked one of the employees if they had any vinyl from the Jackson five and he immediately went to a section of the store and found the jackson five section. They had vinyl from the entire jackson family. The staff was friendly and helpful something I look for when spending my money. If your looking for some vinyl and seeking a store with a great selection and inventory combined with the coolest staff pay joint custody a visit. Cool store catchy, name pleasant staff.

    The first thing I was hit with on entering Joint Custody was some seriously loud scream-o, heavy something or other. I know, I'm old so you can't fault them for being loud. That's literally Rock n Roll... One of the most voluminous collections of used rap I've seen. With pricing that seemed to say they wanted to sell stuff and not just sit on it forever. The biggest challenge I had was artists were not broken down further then by letter. So you can imagine how many titles you need to sift through. It's great for digging and browsing, but a bit more organization would go a long way to drive sales and keep inventory fresh (imho) They guys running the shop were helpful when asked and I witnessed them giving solid advice to another customer on traveling with vinyl. Overall it was a cool place, just a little hard to sift through...

    This is definitely the best record store that I've been to so far in the DMV. It's not listed as a record store, so it didn't show up on my initial Yelp search. I actually found out about it after reading someone's bad review of Red Onion Records. I thought this place had opened up recently based on the stock. I thought they had recently opened, so it hadn't been picked through yet and they still had all their good stuff. They have a REALLY good selection of records. They have a lot of the standards at really good prices (Zeppelin, etc). They also had TWO copies of The Smiths' "Meat Is Murder", which I rarely come across at all. Some of the prices here made me raise my eyebrows, but for the most part everything here is very reasonably priced (if not under priced). What I really liked about this place is the have a bunch of different records in different conditions. Most stores will pass over records with a busted jacket etc., but Joint Custody sold them. I really like that, because I don't care for the condition of the record so much as the actual musical content on it. They also have everything alphabetized within the genres, rather than using those place-card things. I actually like this system way more. In addition to being a record shop, they also sell used clothing and music equipment. Don't let this fool you, though. This isn't the kind of thrift store that sells records on the side (ie, a single box of records pulled from a Goodwill). The content of the shop is pretty evenly divided between the two. There are a lot of records to go through, and there's also a lot of clothes to look through too! The clothes were just okay for me. I thought they were a bit expensive and not particularly fashionable, despite being "vintage". Overall, I really had a good experience here. The owners (workers?) didn't greet me and they seemed kind of bro based on their conversation on Vietnamese food, but they weren't mean or anything. I really liked their vinyl stock and the fact that they carried tapes (though their collection was very limited). This is definitely my new first stop vinyl shop in DC, usurping Red Onion Records. I can't wait to go back!

    Dialogue between JointCustodyDC and myself.. clearly they like to talk down to repeat customers.

    See all

    I wanted to buy (4) more and asked Ambrose (working at JC that day) if he could ship the records to my home in SF.

    If you want overpriced, low quality, faux-vintage home goods sold to you by arrogant, rude and…read moreunpleasant people - this is your spot! They occasionally have some great unique pieces, but that is becoming increasingly rare. It seems to have morphed more into a confusing assortment of newer Ikea-level furniture presented as vintage, gift soaps & candles and random clothing. But what really makes this place special are the people - the staff / owners here seem to actively dislike their customers lol! I lived around the corner for 6 years and used to drop in regularly. They revolve between completely ignoring you while laughing to each other, outright hostility, and aggressive indifference (ask a question - they shrug while walking away lol). To make it all just a little more uncomfortable, it seems like half of what they have on the floor is "unavailable". No signs, no explanation, just when you say you would like to buy it they say it's "unavailable" and walk away lol. I don't know who this place is supposed to appeal to, it seems like they are going for tourists, and maybe young people who just moved here and don't know any better. Hopefully this space will turn over into something that better serves the community.

    Beautiful and inspiring selection of clothing. The vintage furniture and art is amazing too. I…read morebought a hand made table for $600. And I bought 6 chairs for $400.
