Record stores we like: Wombleton Records in LA!

We like vinyl.  We like record stores.  So sue us.

We’re still nursing our hangover from National Record Store day, when we stumbled upon this cool video featuring Ian Marshall of Wombleton Records inLA.

Ian, if I’m not mistaken, will be attending our Vinyl in the Woods record fair on May 28th (still room for vendors – call 831-667-2574.)

Wombleton Records specializes in hard to find first pressings of vinyl records released primarily in the 1960s, 70s and 80s, with outliers from the surrounding decades peppered into the mix.

A longtime vinyl lover who became addicted to the form thanks to the “Greatest Rock Band in the World,” Kiss, Marshall has spanned the globe (Holland, England, Jamaica) to fill out Wombleton’s impressive and sort of daunting collection.

In this fine article and video, Ian talks about the value of wax, the hunt for one good song and his ambivalence toward Record Store Day.
