trip to vintage vinyl

Good record stores have distinct qualities about them. Variety of inventory as well as volume is an obvious start. Loud bands you never heard  blare through out the stores' ambiance speakers. The guy at the register unconcerned with his surroundings, absorbed in a "Rolling Stone" magazine usually. The true bonus is functional listening turntables. An establishment i suggest to anyone in the Midwest region trying to get into vinyl would be St. Louis,Missouri located Vintage Vinyl record shop.

 It is truly unmatched by most places i have shopped at. The staff was chill, not bombarding you with "Anything i can help you with?" every time your started dig for records. The amount of records for sale was really enjoyable and it seem as no genre was lacking in quanity either. Genres and even some time periods were clearly marked, making it tons easier to locate film score LPs and other novelty groupings. Whats always essential for quality vinyl shops is a Dollar bin rack worth rummaging through for five minutes. This is where gems can be discovered and surprise finds that making the experience of purchasing music something of a treasure hunt. For those that are not into vinyl, there where still a quality selection of cassette tapes, CDs, 45s, and DVDs.
