Kops Vinyl Records

Digital streaming and downloads have taken over but sales of the old vinyl format is seeing major growth. The oldest independent record store in the city has been in business since 1967.

  4. I've heard about vinyl coming back. Darn! Interesting store. I could have used them a few years ago when I wrote a record review column for a small town newspaper in Texas. I got "demo" records from the record companies and before long I had no place to store them. Must have been a couple thousand. Gave most of them away. I had not heard of Kops! Darn!

  6. It's pretty amazing that this store survived during that before vinyl made a comeback.

  7. I've walked by this one on occasion. There are some indie stores here that have been stocking up a good deal of vinyl in recent years.

  8. Colourful storefront! The care and storage of vinyl seems like a lot of trouble for the tiny bit of extra quality, much less that it's limited to stereo.

  11. I'm not sure I'd want to walk under that air handler over the door. It's shelf doesn't look all that secure.

  12. I have a few old vinyls still that I have no intention of getting rid of. Love the sound that comes from them.

  13. Super-cool that this record store has been around since '67!! Great photo, and I would live to go in and browse. The plastic milk cartons bring back memories... they serve as excellent album holders!
