The Records Department Woodstock
Record store in Woodstock, IL
216 Main St, Woodstock, IL 60098, United States, Woodstock, IL 60098
We don't believe in sectioning out our store by genres, but based on your preferences I think you would enjoy our shop. Our collection reflects the folks that shop in it, and I suspect there are a lot of folks in our community you would enjoy spinning a record with. We seem to hit hardest with a younger, hipper crowd than the more traditional, dusty record stores attract. Our shop features mostly new vinyl from all the major labels as well as smaller groups such as Flail Records, SubPop, Polyvinyl, Fat Beats, Relapse, Traffic, and others. We also stock music from local musicians, including a few Jazz musicians you might enjoy. We hope you stop by, we like to think our shop is something special. The community around us is interesting and diverse, and you could easily spend a day checking out the shops and eateries we share the square with.
