I love Celebrated Summer Records! Tony, the owner, has a background in punk and hardcore so I have…read morehad excellent luck finding the punk records I am searching for. They also offer a wide variety of new and used pop, indie, hip hop, etc. Chances are they will have what you are looking for. When I was gifted a duplicate punk album for Christmas, I brought one copy here for a trade in and was given a very fair price. The prices here seem very competitive to online resources, corporate shops and other local record stores. I love that the store also hosts events around releases and Record Store Day, presents concerts and puts out exclusive records making it more than just a record shop. If you find yourself in Hampden, and are a music/record aficionado I recommend checking out Celebrated Summer Records.

This shop is a 5 star rating in my book because I'm the type of record shopper who likes to flip…read morethrough stacks and discover awesome finds. You'll find rarities and original print classics here, so that's why you should come to El Suprimo. There are other shops in Fells Point where you can get new releases and reissues, which are great of course, but this is my preferred record shopping experience. Based on that, I love this place. The record shop is within short walking distance of the water taxi. It's close to the corner of Aliceanna and South Broadway. It's also across the street from Cafe Latte'da, where you can get a coffee to caffeine up before looking through records. The store is located in the lower level of the building, so you take a few steps down to enter. It's a small space, but it's packed with records and there are things to look at all over the place. Don't forget to look down because there are also crates on the floor to look through, too. Every time I've gone there, I've seen the same guy, who really knows his music and what's in the store. My boyfriend and he talked about pre-war Memphis blues music once while I found a super-cheaply priced copy of David Johansen's Live It Up in good condition (I was all excited). Anyway, this is a great shop. Only one thing for those with allergies - consider taking a hit of fexofenadine/pseudoephedrine a.k.a. Allegra-D before you go in (that's what I do) - it handles used records and can be a little dusty. Happy record shopping!
