Blue-Sun Record Store

Very underrated gem especially if you're into reggae. I would argue that almost all of their records are at least VG+ or NM/M so you don't have to worry about getting scratchy records. Owner is also very chill and is down for a conversation or to answer any questions you have. I would definitely recommend!

Nice selection, great prices, and a very friendly place to be.

Just a delightful store. The owner is very friendly and will assist with any questions. If you are into incense make sure to pick up some Kuumba Japanese incense (I believe this is the only store in NYC that sells it). I really like the “Obama” scent. Fig & Dr. Pepper are also standouts.

Great record shop a few blocks away from the Marcy (J) stop. They have a great selection from Funk, Soul and Jazz to Hip Hop and Blues. The shop does a great job making sure theres a new selection almost every week and the Owner had no problem giving me a good reco. Incense selection ain't bad neither.

Great new record store in Brooklyn! Was seriously impressed with the quality selection of used records and reasonable prices. Very friendly, approachable owner, and nice clothing too! This is a must visit if you are travelling through NY!

Really great selection of hip hop, jazz, funk, soul, and more. A good mix of new records, esoteric oldies, essentials, and choice 45s. There's also a big $5 and under bin and most things I've gotten from it have been in decent to great condition even, which is totally not the case for all bargain bin records everywhere. Everyone who works there is friendly and helpful. The merch is clean af, and they're the only "in good graces" reseller of Kuunba incense in the US. so get yo wax up, get yo drip up, and get yo smell up.

Super cool spot in Los Sures. Great jazz with selection of some nice blue notes etc. Reggae 7"s for days. If you wanna hear the condition of a record they will throw it on.

It’s cool to have a record store in the neighborhood. But of course there’s always a but, I literally just stepped out of the store and took time out of my day to give a 2 star review. 1 person is working in there, the store is empty (no customers). His first insult was moving an item off the counter As if I was going to steal incense lol. Now after that I nicely ask for specific record size and If he certain bands or artist. remember no customers are in the store. His response “go check it’s right there” with an attitude as if I’ve been there before and did something wrong. It got a second star because they had records lol . How do you expect to sell records when your not willing to help someone for 2 seconds look for a record. It’s sad really where has customer service gone . I hope it wasn’t the owner but it looked as if it was exactly who I was speaking too , which is the sadest part .
