Cleveland’s Best Record Store - A Vinyl Haven for Music Lovers

There’s something special about vinyl. The weight of an LP in your hands, the subtle crackle before the first note hits, the artwork that makes album covers mini-masterpieces—it’s an experience digital music just can’t replicate.

If you’re looking for a record store in Cleveland that understands that love for vinyl, you’ve just found it. We’re more than just a place to buy records—we’re a music sanctuary, a hangout for collectors, and a hub for people who appreciate the way music was meant to be heard.

It doesn’t matter if you’re a seasoned vinyl enthusiast with a library of rare pressings or just getting into collecting—we’re here to help you find the perfect album, the hidden gem, or the classic that shaped your taste in music.

We’re more than just a record shop, we’re a gathering place for music lovers. Collectors swap stories about rare finds, newcomers get advice on starting their collections, and friends bond over their shared love of vinyl.

That excitement is what makes our shop special.

Co-produced by Ness and Dave Sardy, and featuring guest appearances from Benmont Tench of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers and Lucinda Williams, and collaborative cover art by Ness and Shepard Fairey, Born To Kill is the latest installment in a remarkable catalog that spans nearly three generations."
