Kevin LippertDecember 24, 2012Helpful staff and surprisingly well-organized considering the amount of inventory. Was able to find the obscure classical CD I wanted quickly, with a bit of help. And at a good price.
Rachel LovingerNovember 29, 2015I sold my old records here. It was like giving away pieces of my childhood, but Eric took the time to chat with me about my collection, and point out some cool, rare items. My LPs went to a good home!
Daniel CibenerAugust 20, 2014One of the rare remaining true used record stores in NYC. It's pretty much impossible to walk out of there having not bought something. Great selection, amazing prices and always in good condition.
Christian TorresJanuary 4, 2014See a place like that you can call and look for music record CD and you actually can find all the best selection you can go from passing by to see location
DailyCandyMay 15, 2013Bulging shelves hold CDs, LPs, and an extensive collection of film noir, silent, and foreign movies.
Village VoiceNovember 21, 2011Winner of Best Place to Buy CDs in the Village Voice 2011 Best Of issue! Try to stump the staff on pop culture and music knowledge - it's impossible.- Revel In New YorkMarch 31, 2010I like Academy’s selection of dance records, which are priced nicely. They’re open with the synth genre and interested in local label releases. -Veronica Vasicka, Founder, Minimal Wave Read more
Bruce M. FosterAugust 20, 2010Always some place to be checked. Damn, but didn't I find a CD set of the complete solo piano works by Ferrucio Busoni there.
