Cool record store in a picturesque small town. Good selection of CDs and vinyl. Open until 9 many nights, which is nice.

The nicest owner and staff in any record store east of The Mississippi River by far ! Stop in…read moreanytime !

I live 90 mins away, but I have always gone to MSJ when in the Stroudsburg area visiting relatives…read more I started going in the 90s when the store was in a slightly different location on Main Street. It's a great store, with a very nice longtime owner, a helpful and friendly staff, and it has a relaxed atmosphere. MSJ is in a good neighborhood for lunch. They avoid all the mistakes that many other record stores make. I am speaking, of course of snotty, snobby, easily triggered owners/salespeople, or racks of lps too jammed or unpriced "bring to the counter for price"albums, etc. The records here are priced clearly and fairly, in my opinion*. *If you haven't shopped for records in recent years.. the demand for records has gone up drastically in recent years, and prices have gone up accordingly everywhere. You will not find 2008 (or 1974) prices on records in 2025. Especially on original pressings of the big classic rock albums by the top bands still played on the radio. I feel these guys are pretty fair, especially if you compare shopping at a store vs. shopping online, where you have to pay extra for shipping and really have nothing more than a vague hope that the LP will arrive in the stated condition. That aside. and back to the review... The more expensive items have sealed flaps, but you can open and inspect the vinyl at the counter. Less expensive records can be inspected at the rack if you do so carefully (i.e., not accidentally flinging the record across the store or getting yer greasy fingerprints 'em). Note: Record swapping will get you banned, you delinquents ;) - so don't be that person. Also, drinks are a no-no for understandable reasons. MSJ has tons of great vinyl in vg'+ or better condish. Rock is broken down alphabetically in various sections by price: $10 and up, $5, etc. There are boxes underneath these lp racks, but they request you get an employees help to access them. I never have time to crate dig, but I aspire to one day. I pick up a lot of records each visit, with very few exceptions (over 30 yrs) the albums and cds I've purchased have always been in VG+ or better, clean, etc. I have often traded in albums for store credit, and they are reasonable if you bring in decent records in nice condition that are not super common. I can't speak to how well they cover other genres since I mostly concentrate on rock - but there's a good amount of other stuff to peruse. If you go, I hope you find that gem you are looking for!

It's so nice to stand in a music store and hold a album or cd and remember what listening to music…read moreuse to be. There are times when streaming music is great or being able to travel with thousands of songs is the best choice. But there is a lost joy of putting on a record and listening first song to last song. It is the way that music was made to be heard. It's how that artist or band wanted you to hear it. Just listening, reading the liner notes, and looking at album art, it can be an activity all to itself. Gallery of Sound has a great selection of new, used, records and CDs. They have plenty of other music merch- rock t-shirts, stickers, posters, wall art, books and other music related stuff. Walking into the store is trip back to my youth. Now I will hop back into my car, plug in my phone and shuffle through my 2000+ songs on the ride home, thinking of which new-old album I will put on the turntable when I get home. There is a good time for all the different ways to listen to music.

Unprofessional and terrible. They announced that they would have autographed CDs for Green Day to…read morepre-order. We drove hours and quite literally the first two people to pre- order the CD and then on the day the CD was released we were told they weren't available anymore. Whats then point of pre ordering a CD and being the first to do so if they are immediately sold out. They must of kept them themselves or are flipping them because we were the first ones to pre-order them
