Phoenix and Tucson Record Shops?


I love to visit used record shops while traveling and am wondering if any of you Arizona peeps have recommendations for “don’t miss” stores in either the Phoenix or Tucson areas. My taste leans more toward jazz and classical, but I enjoy a variety of music. Thanks for any suggestions!

My apologies for neglecting to mention ZIA Records. I go to two regularly; the one on Camelback and 19th Ave; and the one on Thunderbird, just east of the 17 Fwy. I recommend both highly. Allow plenty of time, as both stores are full of records. Don’t be afraid to ask for help on locating items. I found out last week that they have Mobile Fidelity UHQRs. Who knew? The staff is very helpful!

Record High sets the standard for only selling decent quality LPs.

Dan the owner has great new stuff each week.

 

Zia is a chain and has the ability to check all stores for items

as it is computerized. A real plus when shopping LPs or CDs.

Mike at 'In The Groove' Records has a YouTube channel that he updates almost every day with new releases and such (Thursday is big new release day), and you can get a good idea of his store by checking out a few of those...
