Love the decor, ambiance, and the way records are stacked with plenty of room to peruse without colliding with other LP seekers. Found two records for the right price and wish I had more time as they had record players and cassette players as well. Will need one in the future. Maybe next time. Make my way up from Miami. Great place for great music at a great price!

Owned by one of the kindest, most conscientious music fans and female store owners in Michigan. An encounter with Heather Frarey is like talking to an old freind from high school. She is personable and connects on every level. She along with her pal Bill, stocks this store with so much love and charm. But don't let it fool you. She's a rocker. A punk. An adult contemporary lover. That's the BEST kind of fan. The store grows by leaps and bounds yearly. And her VERY affordable USED selections are unmatched by other records stores. They are all in excellent condition. Nothing she wouldn't own for herself. I have bought and sold many records at the Record Lounge. Always at a fair price. Let me say that again: She BUYS used records at a great price. By the dozens or hundreds. That fact is, I could never spend ENOUGH time there on my visits. If you like them on FB you will see almost daily videos of new arrivals. They are very good at responding to their messages and will welcome you with great service. Even BETTER, she sells stereos. Not the random new stuff but has a great array of SOLID older units restored and cared for by a great friend of hers. It's more than you'd expect from an independent. But THAT is the reason why she succeeds. The store has more employees than I have met yet, but I plan for a reunion soon. So I will be in to scour the Monkees records, talk about ELO and come home with more than I went in for and THAT is the hallmark of a great business and record store.

I found a wonderful, antique framed photograph I bought at a great price. The owner was there when we were, he was very nice, chatted with us for a while. The women at the counter weren't particularly warm, but one had just gotten blasted by an obnoxious older guy because he complained that the store charges an extra 6% to customers who pay with a credit or debit card, to cover the fees associated with that. She told him to take it up with the bank and he got really mad and loud about that. So, in fairness, I can understand why when we got to the counter she was a little distant. We'll go back, we prefer high-end true antiques more than newer and flea market type items, but it seemed there were good things at good prices with a bit of searching. BRING CASH OR CHECKBOOK - STORE CHARGES CUSTOMERS ADDITIONAL 6% IF THEY USE A CARD TO PAY.

They have so many options, with both older and newer sections of most genres. I honestly can see myself buying stuff for him or my parents here. It's February right now, so my mind is on Valentine's Day. If your significant other or crush is into records I would stop here because they have both new and used records, with the used records being as cheap as $3. Whether $40 or $10 is your budget, you can find something fantastic here for a gift or something sweet for yourself. My husband got 2 vinyls while here but he didn't get the Kendrick Lamar record he said he'd been looking everywhere for. Guess what I am looking into getting him for Valentine's? So glad I could find some great things at a great place.

I have no idea why…read moreRecords & Tapes Galore is so under the radar, but it is the best shop I've ever visited as far as an anachronistic, authentic, unpretentious, and honest experience goes. The couple running the place have been there for over 40 years. Some of the stock has probably been there for nearly as long. There's a veneer of neglect about the place in the best way possible. It's (dis)organized into piles and boxes on top of their older inventory, and they can direct you to the newer piles, or to older piles where you might find some stray cache of a particular genre. Or just start digging. Some of the inventory is pretty overpriced - especially the Beatles and Stones and other classics. But a lot isn't - at all. They have an eclectic selection of newer releases, reggae, psychedelica, local music, electronica, and who knows what else. Prices on this lesser known stuff are often more than fair. The atmosphere is laid back - it's like hanging out in your grandparents' basement. Some of the people who come in have been coming in a LONG time. An older fellow came in looking to haggle for a record and was told off for an insulting offer, responding with a "I've been coming to this store since the day it opened." This is a true neighborhood record store and something you just won't find anywhere else in this era of discogs and ebay pricing. Just go and support these people. They really appreciate it.

It's nice going into a store knowing you're not being overcharged. Jim, the owner, will bend over backwards to help you find what you're looking for, even if he has to special order it for you. He'll even give you a fair price for any vinyl you're looking to sell, which is a heck of a lot better than trying to sell them at a garage sale or the like. If you're in the market for vinyl, this is where to go.
