Lonely Planet review for Rock & Roll Collectibles
In this cluttered and very exciting shop you'll find the French Quarter's largest selection of vinyl (that's old-timey 33 rpm long playing records, pal). Come to think of it, this is the only shop selling records in the Quarter anymore. After two-plus decades of CDs and the emergence of eBay as the primary marketplace for used LPs, this place keeps things humming. (Though the store does have a presence on eBay.)
Rock, blues and R&B are the primary areas of interest here, spanning everything from highly collectible 1940s jump blues to those latter-day Stones albums nobody seems to want. The store also carries a limited supply of rare 78 rpm discs, and the walls are covered with vintage concert posters that are for sale.
