    Great selection of records once you find where to go! Reminds me of a real old fashioned music experience, with the vast majority of genres available. A little tight when busy but that does not detract from the brilliant selection and friendly staff.

    Even if this is the only vinyl shop in Lincoln it still has a good selection, if you want a place to really spend some time looking through the many boxes of music to hopefully find something to take home it's definitely worth a visit!

    The only independent record shop still alive in Lincoln because of the dedication and hard work by the legend Sonic Jim
