Going Underground

If you are looking for vinyl, there is a wide selection to choose from but be prepared to pay in my opinion higher pricing for used records. While I have close to 1500 records, my purpose was to look at their CD selection. The CD choices were limited. There were more used CDs at the Book Hounds.I browsed at some of the vinyl selection. I saw a used copy of The Beatles Sgt. Pepper for $34.99. It was an American pressing not even a British pressing. Just make sure you bring enough $$$. I wont be back here. The 2 guys behind the counter were into their own thing and not friendly at all.

If you like music and/or are into records, you really need to check this place out. They have a TON of records here in all genres. I was really pleasantly surprised by the variety. They sell record players as well as the used records, so it's an easy place to get started entirely if you want to pick up the hobby. The people working the day I visited were nice. We sold some of our used records and equipment to them and it was pretty quick and easy. The amount of money received wasn't amazing but honestly we are happy they went to a good spot and might find a new, happy home. Definitely check this spot out!

They have a great selection of new and used vinyl. I was really impressed with their inventory of blues music. I thought the pricing was fair, but the service was fantastic! I met the owner who was in the store, a really interesting person to talk with about music. I was traveling through an area, but would absolutely go back.

I've been here a couple times since this is one of the only local places my city has to offer and I love the variety of stuff they got, but every time I visit the staff always seems so stand-offish. Personally they have never made me feel welcomed. I honestly hate coming here because of the staff if I'm being honest. Seems like they pick and choose who to be kind to lol. Wish there was somewhere else in town. Also, there was this incident where my buddy picked a record off a shelf and didn't put it back correctly (keep in mind we didn't know there was a certain way we had to place them back up) and the guy behind the counter rudely told him to put it back but with attitude. Such a shame, these guys need to learn some basic manners and respect.

I loved visiting this shop. The used selection was extensive, particularly for classic rock and metal. They had a big selection of new releases too, such as a section for DFA Records. I left the store very happy with Steely Dan's Gaucho and one of the store's great tote bags. Looking forward to be back!

Love this place. I never buy my records anywhere else. They always have such great finds and are never looking to price gouge. Always support local.

Absolutely love this place! It's my favorite shop to go to with friends. Upfront guys are laid back and chill always playing music (which usually ends up in my playlist) as well as having a constant flow of records so there's always something new when you come in! It's always a joy especially when supporting local shops like this one

The store is stocked with your great grandmother's records.The guys behind the counter are rude.The biggest issue is they will not haggle with any of the prices. All in all go to BooBoo records in San Luis Obispo or my favorite amazon

They were raciest they had photos of white people wearing Native American hats on their walls.

Not dog-friendly. Was told in a SNOOTY way that no dogs allowed the second I set foot in the door. I asked why? And the guy snapped, "I don't know, it's not my store." Great. Its a freaking record store, not a fancy restaurant!I have been going to this store for over a decade. I go out of my way anytime I am driving anywhere near Bakersfield. NOT ANYMORE. They moved a few doors down from their old store, new location, new attitude and it's not good. I did not go back without my sweet little Pug and will never go there again.
