Title: I thought i died and went to
Post by: smargo on 12 Nov 2017, 06:03 pm

vinyl heaven - i was eating pizza at mineos pizza at 2128 murray st in squirrel hill in pittsburgh and someone said are you into music. i said yes and she said - there is a world famous record store 3 doors down from here - called "jerrys records"

When i walked in the store i was so overwhelmed - i didnt know where to begin. It seems that every vinyl record that was ever produced in the world - was there.

Rows and rows and - adjacent rooms full of vinyl - whats a self proclaimed audiophile to do - i got myself to calm down and finally do some searching of some albums- i wound up buying 6 albums

I cant believe this store was never on my radar in the last 10 years

a bucket list contender if you are into vinyl - its almost worth the trip to the store in pittsburgh by itself - im still shaking - im home now in philadlephia

I know a guy in Boston that claims he is looking to sell his collection of 30,000 LPs, ~20K of which are classical....
