Alison’s Record Shop is a family-owned vintage vinyl record store located in Nashville, Tennessee. The shop specializes in used records and invites customers to experience music through the rich sound of vinyl played on a turntable. According to the store’s website, it offers what it calls the greatest selection of vintage vinyl anywhere in Davidson County, and it pairs that inventory with a laid-back environment and friendly service. The store continually adds to its selection and encourages customers to stop by often to see the latest records in stock.
Products
The shop’s primary focus is vintage vinyl, with hundreds of records spanning a wide range of genres, from rock and metal to 1980s new wave and R&B. While it specializes in LPs, it also carries a limited selection of 45s and CDs. The store emphasizes quality and playability: according to the website, most records do not make it to the shelves unless they receive a “very good” grade from the shop’s knowledgeable staff.
Beyond records, Alison’s Record Shop sells turntables and audio equipment from a number of established brands, including:
- Music Hall turntables
- DALI speakers
- Magnepan speakers, noted as made in the USA
- Bryston electronics and speakers
- Marantz amplifiers
The store also buys used record collections. Customers looking to sell their LPs can bring albums in for a competitive offer, and depending on staff availability, may leave a collection for evaluation. The shop additionally maintains an online shopping store and an eBay page, both of which carry inventory that differs from what is available in the physical location.
