From the reviews

This is one of my favorite places to visit. The owner and staff are knowledgeable, caring and always put the customer first. I have been shopping here for about 5 years now and I've always had a great time.

Always quality, always friendly, a great place to locate that hard to find record or CD. Jason, the owner always tries to accommodate special orders and requests. Quality new releases, tons of vintage vinyl and they have a cool discount program, plus he’s always on top of the latest and greatest releases.

So I relocated from Baltimore to this area about a month ago and back home we had this place called the Sound Garden. It is pretty famous because musicians come from all over to sign autographs there and their selection is pretty great.

★★★★★ — Shane, Feb 2018

I'm not sure why it's taken me this long to review... Good selection. Check. Good prices. Check. Friendly atmosphere. Check! Seriously this is an old school "mom n pop" shop. Reminiscent of younger years when people bought their music the way it was made to be heard.
