It's a ritual to hit a record store whenever I'm out of town. With Memphis being historically deep…read moreinto music, it was fitting to make sure to make it happen this trip. Shangri- La Records was up the street from where we had BBQ & as soon as we walked in, the records covered wall to wall. So much to choose from. There was a section with a setup of drums & a mic stand. Came to find out there was a jam session that ended right before we walked in. I really really enjoyed the Memphis sections, whether it was based off of a record label (like Stax) or an artist (like OV Wright). When I found the record I ended up buying, I instantly told myself that I was going to back as long as I'm ever in Memphis. 'B-Ball's Best Kept Secret' is super rare. NBA players produced + performed on the album. I thought I was trippin' because I always heard about it on podcasts & when I saw the tracklist I was like "OH SNAP!!". The individual who helped at the register (who might've been the manager/owner) was really nice & hooked us up with a sticker (I collect local stickers). Great experience as a first time visitor + consumer.

I love it even more when the records are organized and have labels to help you find things so much easier... They also had areas for their new arrivals + a pretty large sale section! As a bonus, they have a small memorabilia section with some interesting, nostalgic merch. This place is worth a stop in when in Memphis!

The record store is nice but it's not very big. They do have a nice selection but I feel like the prices were a little on the expensive side. They do have a clearance rack but most of the records are either worn or they are by bands that a lot of people may not recognize. It's still a good store and worth checking out

Emailed and got a response that it was picked up that day and they claimed that USPS sometimes does not scan label until the day it is delivered.

I never heard back, so I wrote to them in early February. I received a very terse and dismissive response. I chalked that up to COVID which I know has created havoc, as I acknowledged in my emails and VM messages. After waiting a while, I've tried to contact them (very politely) again here in March but have received no reply. I'm concerned that this once great little company is accepting online orders but is out of business, buyer beware. I hope they are all well, you never know these days though... Their customer response line offers to let you leave a message, but then returns to the original answering intro. The call intro says to call back during normal hours, even mid-day M-F. The online site mentions problems with the USPS for the past 2 1/2 months. 3/16/21 update - Sleeve City did contact me today regarding the delays. Upgrading my review today, will continue to upgrade if the order does eventually arrive.
