Any good vinyl stores in Providence, RI?

Hey Folks,

I've been swamped with work

and my priorities need to be re-adjusted. I'm heading to Providence, RI for work and I was wondering if there are any vinyl stores in this town that I need/should stop by.

Cheers, Jim

Hear you.

Travelling to Detroit weekly has severly impacted my listening time... but buying time has not suffered as I have thoroughly enjoyed discovering new sources in the evening.

Never been to Providence, but a quick Google search shows a few potentially interesting shops including:

www.armageddonshop.com

www.iye.com

www.thetimecapsule.com

Sorry no first hand experience.... any new englander vinylphools out there??

Miney,

Thanks, that is what i love about this forum

, I get to my hotel room, tried from a day of travel and work and I have some possibilities!

I will do my best to check out Armageddon Record Shop & The Time Capsule, they are close to where I am at.

cheers,

Jim

I was able to make it to The Time Capsule before they closed. I only had 30min, it was the end of their yearly half-off on vinyl sale - and got some great finds!

The owner Rob was a really nice & friendly guy too! Not a huge place, yet the used vinyl was in really good shape. Rob said he is pretty selective with what he puts in his bins.

I picked up some great vinyl:
The Electric Flag – A Long Time Comin'
Procol Harum – Procol Harum
Procol Harum – Grand Hotel
Procol Harum – Shine On Brightly
Bread – Guitar Man
It's A Beautiful Day – It's A Beautiful Day
It's A Beautiful Day – Marrying Maiden
Ten Wheel Drive with Genya Ravan – Peculiar Friends
Jean-Michel Jarre – Equinoxe
Iron Butterfly – In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida
Iron Butterfly – Metamorphosis

With the sale i only paid $25

Miney, thanks again

cheers, Jim

That's a serious haul! Those first five Procol Harum albums are absolutely essential if not quintessential!
