Philadelphia record stores have a seemingly endless selection of physical music, from old school cassette tapes to classic vinyl records and everything in between. Whether you’re looking for an iconic album or you’re digging through the crates for a cult favorite, Philly has what you need.

If you want to kick your feet up and lounge on office chairs as you scan through a selection, this city has a record store for you. In others, you can check out the occasional live show held right in the shop or in the basement beneath. One Philly record shop operates an indie record label out of its storefront. And, aside from physical music itself, there’s also merchandise galore from band tees to artist pins.
