When I've recently met some Dallas artists that I ended up performing at Top Ten with, it messed me up that this spot's on the same street & that I never knew about it this whole time. Finally coming around to perform here & all that led up to it was a great experience. The communication was always good to make sure things would go good (all the way from social media to being on location for the day of the show). The sound guy was efficient & always made sure the artists & I were set for the night. The sound was good, the crowd enjoyed the night. The staff was nice as well, very friendly & were letting us in on some future plans dealing with music shows. One thing I didn't get a chance to do was dive fully into the selections of vinyl on deck. The spot is intimate & very suitable for DJs to spin, open mic, spoken word, etc type of events. It didn't take long for me to plot on the next show to do here. Outside of having a great show, I had a great night overall.

I'm a comic head, so comics are what I come for exclusively (though they have plenty of records, and other things). Really appreciate that they have smaller imprints like Image, Vault, and Boom along with a tiny section of indie publishers. Cute shop, and always a personable staff member up front. Four stars for me just because they don't have a larger comic selection. I'd probably give 5 stars if I was a music head, for those who are the store name reflects the extensive vinyl collection here.

Nearing the end of a brief visit to Dallas recently--from Saturday afternoon to early Sunday…read moreafternoon--I decided to check out Josey Records in Dallas. To me, as someone who fits into the record collector/record dealer/cratedigger and DJ categories, visiting a record store I've never been to before is always an exciting or intriguing adventure. Josey has a reputation for being a good spot to buy records, so I am glad I finally went here to see what's up. Just looking around the store initially, I could see there are several areas in which the store could be improved or made more interesting. My first observation re: genre sections is that the signage for aisles could be more prominent. All of it is placed rather low, but at great record stores, you're never left guessing where everything is. You just find the music you're looking for more easily. With the massive volume of music releases in the store, I would like to see better curation of what's in stock. For example there were lots of Brian Eno releases, but not the ones I'd be interested in. For Parliament Funkadelic, there were just 2 Parliament 45s, but no Funkadelic and no George Clinton 45s. I thought that was weird. I was also looking for a famous jazz guitarist who's listed on the website, but the guy working the counter didn't even know who he was. Overall, I think the selection is decent if you are willing to spend time just looking through various sections, but there's no help on the floor--so you're just basically on your own. It kind of reminded me of shopping for records in a warehouse, but the warehouse I usually go to has much better curation. I should also state I tend to like smaller stores which get the mix of old and new releases more right or perhaps even focus on a certain niche. On a different note, in addition to music, there are lots of other cool things at Josey: a stage for performances, books, posters, tshirts and other ephemera. So, it is easy for music nerds to get lost here. Also, the parking situation is really good here, and I thought the service was good--the guys here are friendly, and one of them did go back into the aisles to look for something. Overall, I would rate this store a 4/5.
