    Killer Klowns from Outer Space soundtrack!

    First time visit and could have stayed for hours. Awesome selection - seriously, a wide array of genres, etc. Staff super nice - great checkout experience. Everything was very organized and easy to find. Would highly recommend checking it out in Andersonville!

    Records silly !!

    Wow. What a great selection of new and used. I expected find one or two records by any given band and was so delighted to find multiple releases by many acts. Obscure. Rare. New. A must visit. Especially if you're from out of town. They gave me a tote to carry my finds. Awesome staff. - Randall

    highly recommend if you're into records or CD's (perks of not driving a hybrid, my friends).

    See all

    Very nicely organized shop. This record shop wasn't trying to charge 40 for a bee-gees record either.

    his place never ceases to amaze me! Talk about a store that caters to my audio/musical niches, BOY…read moreHOWDY! As a DJ / audiophile ( not to be confused with that hump leader of the free world, President Pedophile), this store COMPLETELY runs the gamut! From '70's and '80's IMPORT 12" Remixes, to 1930's Old Time Radio Shows. How about 45's for your jukebox? Yep, classic finds are here for those too! Picture sleeves also. Bootlegs anyone??? Nancy Sinatra said THESE boots were made for listening! And let's keep in mind the QUALITY of the product here! This is not stuff from your local second hand store, oh no! Sorry, no Lawrence Welk or Jim Nabors albums here. I haven't even mentioned the video aspect of things sold here or the books (music reference and personalities). They could very well have called this store Laurie's Treasures, because that's exactly what you'll find here! Happy hunting! https://youtu.be/1Wxf8bv9mG8

    Best record store in Chicago, period…read more I lived in Lincoln Square for 4 years and made it a part of my regular routine to stop here on my walk home from the train station at least once a week. They are always getting new goodies in so you have to go often or you might miss something good! Very well organized. Insane selection of vinyl, CDs and actually a good book collection in the back. From brand new music to classics from the 60's, they carry it all. And eclectic stuff that is tough to find. The people who work there will become your friends. Gem store in the best 'hood in Chicago!
