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.

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!

This place has a fantastic selection of vinyl records! I love how organized everything is. They…read morehave a wide variety of music genres, from hip-hop, soul, rock/r&b to soundtracks. 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!

Very hard to find business owners treat their customers the way these gentlemen do. sometimes I will come to their store and if I can't find what I'm looking for they have no problem doing everything they can to help me out. maybe the people that had a bad experience with them was a communication problem on the customer side. I will always be a loyal customer to Variety Records.
