    A funky dope record store across from the Mission Inn. Look for the sign against the bricks: o's in room are turn tables! Skip down the stairs and to the left, find a vibey little store filled with vinyl treasures everywhere. Up the walls, spilling from bins, and flowing into your ears. Retro look and feel. The space expresses sound, color, and art in a way that's mellow and overt at the same time. Hybrid store, museum, chill spot, portal to yesteryear.

    Up and coming record store about to blow up in downtown riverside - an area starving for more music stores.

    When I need to purchase a thoughtful gift, Rhino Records is always at the top of my list. Records,…read morebooks, BluRays, stickers, I even went I. For a new record needle and the staff was so helpful! As the media corporations keep merging, it will become more and more important to have your favorite physical media. When our enemies knock out our internet to sow chaos, how will we listen to music or watch our favorite films? Take heed, young ones. The streaming generation, all your favorite things can be taken from you with the flip of a switch, not if you have physical media. There are beloved films of my youth unavailable for any price streaming. If your bought it digitally, they can take it away tomorrow. If you own it on physical media THEYLL ONLY TAKE IT FROM YOUR COLD DEAD HANDS!!!

    Is this store owned by or affiliated with the Rhino Records label? I don't know. It would seem…read moreso. It doesn't really matter. This is a an excellent shop. You walk in and vinyl, some merch, cassettes, and books are to the right and CDs, DVDs and posters are to to the left. The vinyl selection is very nice. Don't sleep on the books. They are excellent. Do people actually buy cassettes? I don't think I want to meet those people, no oiffense. The CD collection was bigger and better than I expected. They have both new and used CDs. The prices on the used CDs were reasonable. Music will be playing during your visit and it will probably be good music (on vinyl, of course). The store is spotless and the workers were very friendly and helpful. The vibe here is very good. If I lived closer, I would come here a lot and I would buy a lot. Free and easy parking in the lot. If you love music, you have no excuse for not visiting.

My boyfriend is in one of the bands that played here which they've played once before. We recently got into comics and reading again so we went in to supper their bookstore. The staff was very welcoming and helpful when we walked in the store. There were so many book organized into their own sections. This made the book easier to look through. Recently I've been into horror book and that section did not disappoint. I ended up getting Stephen King's Pet Cemetery. The prices of the book were on the lower side which was very nice!. As for the concert aspect, it was another amazing hard core show. The bands were amazing and I have to give some love to the staff running the concert. A fight broke out and two members of the staff took care of it. They kicked the guy out who started it and was there for the guy that got hurt. Overall this is an amazing location and I will be back for another concert/book shopping session.

The employees were welcoming, friendly and made the experience fun. They encouraged us to join their (free) rewards program via their website and follow them on instagram for updates and other events. I preordered the LP, and pricing is slightly higher than the Bruno Mars website, but I was happy to support a local business. I picked up the album today, and received the same great customer service as my first visit.
