Hey guys,

I've been collecting vinyl now for about the last three years (20 now), and I've hit up some great spots here in the East Valley.

Eastside Records in Tempe, Rockzone (pricey!), Hoodlums, Bookman's (they have some good stuff sometimes), and my favorite by far, Revolver Records (used to be in Scottsdale, now in Phoenix).

My question is, are there any choice digging spots I'm missing out on?

I haven't been back to Phoenix since '94 but the record stores I used to hit up was Stinkweeds, Prickly Pair, Circles and Memory Lane.
In Tucson I used to hit up PDQ Records.

Thanks juke! I've been to Memory Lane once, and I need to go back. Also need to check out the phoenix shops.

Grandiose just closed up a couple weeks ago... that sucks. Half-Priced Books suck ass in PHX. East-side records sucks too as they're waaaayy overpriced.. (talkin bout 5 dollar vg copies of 'sun goddess' for days...) stinkweeds is alright for new records but i don't think they have many used lps.

Revlover is pretty cool and the dudes that run it are chill.. i've been comin up hard at thrifts lately tho....

ZIA records also has some lps, mostly terds...
