Strictly Vinyl Records

Found lots of titles I wanted but couldn't afford. I'm not saying they were overpriced, prices are consistent with the market. Just no killer deals. Good selection though.

Well worth a visit when digging in the East Bay! I go there for Jazz and funk records and always find something I like within my price range. Friendly and knowledgeable staff.

Is there anything more thrilling and joy-inducing than thumbing through rows and rows of records, old and new, with that undercurrent of anticipation for suddenly encountering that one album you’ve been hoping to find for who knows how long? Only you can answer that for yourself. For my part, a close second to that experience is discovering a gem of a record shop like Strictly Vinyl Records. You’ve already gathered that brevity is not my strong suit. But let my use of 50+ words (when 10 would do) emphasize how great this little shop is. The experience is pure joy. You’re greeted with a simple “hello” 👋🏼 as you walk in. Then given all the time you want to make your personal discoveries. Like many have notes already, the prices are fair and honest, the record conditions are pretty damn great, and the selection is so *so* good. I just got home and already can’t wait to go back. I’m excited for you to experience this for the first time like I did today. Honestly, I’m jealous. What are you waiting for? Get in there!

A cute tiny record shop with a very nice selection of records. Just enough for a relaxing session flipping through the vinyl. I went home with a Boston record for an honest price that plays great.

Great find! I went there for the first time today and left with reggae, gospel, jazz, soul! I will be back.
