Since I was there, I decided to peruse the selections of vinyl records for sale. They had a lot of really cool inventory, and even though I am not really a collector of records, I do still have some from when I was younger, and it was cool to see certain selections that I currently own, and the price that they are selling for. They also had a nice selection of boomboxes and other retro electronics for sale. This place is really cool, and the owner was spinning tunes, and was really nice and very friendly . . . Cheers!

Walked in for the first time today, and instantly saw an album I've been on the hunt for. I left…read morewith four records I haven't been able to find, along with two more for a very responsible price especially for what I got! Greg the owner was awesome as I checked out him and I got to talking definitely a great dude with a great store with a great vibe. He was playing some groovy music that I was really vibing to as I looked through what the crates. Now the store is small but Greg most definitely maximizes the space he has, the selection and value of what he has in his store makes this a must stop if you enjoy vinyl.

Jerry's Records made me fall in love with my record player. I couldn't have asked for a better…read morestore to help me build my collection. I can always find something I'm interested in for $10 or less. Jerry's is a third place to me. It's a must visit every time I'm back in Pittsburgh! Jerry's is estimated to have over 500,000 records. Here's what I've learned from my two years in Pittsburgh to help sort through the collection: 1. Best sellers are located upfront. Normally there's a few of each artist: The Beatles, Fleetwood Mac, Led Zeppelin, The Who, Rush, Aerosmith, and many more. Price range between $20-60 2. For people starting out, Jerry's has a lot of well known albums and artists for $7-8 a record. Common finds: Elvis, Frank Sinatra, Santana, REO Speedwagon, Jefferson Starship/Jefferson Airplane, Elton John, STYX, and Chicago. 3. Huge Christmas selection in the $3-20 range. They likely have what you're looking for. My boyfriend's mom was looking for Christmas with Mitch for many years. She found 8 copies at Jerry's Records in less than 15 minutes. 4. There's a large Broadway and musical soundtrack section tucked in the corner down the first hallway on the right. Normally they are about $5-15. 5. Before checking out, look at the record and sleeve for damages. From experience, most priced above $7 play really well. They may have a few crackles, but a quick wash takes most of that away. Things in the $3 range are risky.

This record store is gigantic and maybe my favorite thing is that there are a couple of different…read moredivided rooms, and different music was playing in the main room (which includes rock/pop, alternative, and folk alongside all of their bestsellers) and then if you venture off into the well-stocked jazz room -- through a small corridor, you are greeted by a whole new acoustic vibe. The records here for the most part seem to be vintage. I didn't find a number of things I was looking for -- perhaps they were too new to be found here or a little obscure. But, I did notice that they have a very large collection of musicals and film soundtracks (the former of which I am a major fan). The rows and rows of what I think is their back stock not in the main center of the store are also a sight to behold. There are also a lot of hodgepodge bins at the front of the newest and "hottest" arrivals, as well as employee picks. I'm sure I'll be back here again. There must be 50K records in here. It is a bit overwhelming. Also, I will lastly say that the prices for the majority of items I saw while perusing are rather affordable and reasonable.

My girlfriend was charged $40 for 4 Shirley temples because apparently they didn't have a button on…read morethe kiosk to ring up shirley temples, they could only charge for $10 drinks. That's unacceptable and she was most likely given a $7 value of grenadine at best. I'm sure if they needed to they could have created a custom item and set the pricing but this business instead decided to prey and take advantage on someone who was too Kind to disagree and refuse the order. Shame!

The record store is impeccable with new finds as well as rare. I've seen quite a few bands play here as well from local to touring and national acts. Space is small but packs the people without being uncomfortable. Acoustics are good. The addition of the bar was a smart move. Affordable prices with alcoholic as well as non-alcoholic beverages. This is totally a place I'd want to visit if I were on vacation somewhere. Glad I don't have to leave the city to do so.

I only…read morewanted to snag that The Sicks record, but then I saw the EEL release and got lost in the skulls. Sometimes I go into Mind Cure with my mind made up. I only wanted to see if they had some Thad Jones or bebop for a rainy day. But my mind is never made up. I dig around and find some cheap funk and soul; mostly Parliament, The Isley Brothers, The Staple Singers. I really like what they're playing and ask what it is. Bob Hocko and the Swamp Rats. I'll take that one, too. Thanks. Sometimes I go into Mind Cure with nothing to do and nothing on my mind. I'm in a slump. Do you have music? The answer is always yes. I walk out with things I've never heard of. Or things I've heard of. It doesn't matter. Mind Cure is my favorite place in Pittsburgh. I can get a coffee downstairs and buy a book or a comic upstairs. They have all of the music I want and the shelves are carefully curated and constantly updated. Punk, hardcore, metal, rock, funk, blues, jazz, folk, world, and even a weirdo/indoor kid section for when I'm feeling like a true lump of coal.

The prices are fair and on par with what we've seen in other record stores and online! They also sell AV equipment and accessories, so it's not solely records being sold. In speaking with one of the staff members, it seems as though they are more than happy to special order any specific albums upon request, which is so nice! I strongly recommend stopping by, and cannot wait to return for more music!

I often have driven by the LP Café and been impressed with its appearance. This weekend, we decided to pay it a visit to check it out, and we were not disappointed. The owner and staff are very friendly, knowledgeable, and accommodating. The selection of vinyl is impressive, especially if you want limited edition or recent pressings of albums. They don't seem to be deep into vintage vinyl, but I think that is a wise choice in this trending neighborhood, where the younger people may be more interested in current releases. The older vinyl options that they had were in excellent condition, and they even had a bargain box selection that was very, very good! Overall, you can tell that the owner and staff have a passion for this. unfortunately, we were in a bit of a hurry, and did not stay for coffee, but I'll bet it's great. The aromas are fantastic. The store seem to be very busy while we were there, but the owner states that recently it has been a little slow - if you're reading my review, it would be great if you would help this wonderful local business out and pay them a visit. You will not be sorry! In fact, we're going to visit again today! I'm sure we'll come away with some wonderful choices.

Prices are slightly higher compared to other records stores in Western PA and eastern Ohio. If I'm looking for a specific title, this store would not be my first choice but would be an option if having trouble finding a unique title. I would go back but it would not be a planned trip, etc. As of 2/25/26, You may find slightly better deals at Jerry's in Squirrel Hill, Preserving Vinyl in New Kensington, Geos in Youngstown OH, Music To My Ear off Babcock Blvd or Inner Groove in Monaca.

Hard-to-find, rare, classic pressings as well as newer recordings. I could spend hours just looking at all of the albums and learning more about music that I love as well as bands and singers I don't know tons about. This is really just a fun shop that carries so much history, art and joy in the form of vinyl. Even if you're a modest collector you have to give yourself the pleasure of enjoying all that Get Hip has to offer.
