Record stores

There are a number of record stores in Munich which sell vinyl, both new and second-hand. There are not many such stores, but there are a few.

Still in business

• There is one around the corner from The Arc on tram line 27 in Schwabing. The name escapes me now. It also has 45's.

• M2 - Rosenheimer Straße 77

• Optimal - http://www.echtoptimal.de/

• Resonanz - LP´S CD´S, Auenstr. 4, 80469 München, next door to "Cafe Frenzy" near Fraunhoferstraße.

• Zweitausendeins - Türkenstraße 67, 80799 München Maxvorstadt, http://www.zweitausendeins.de (for mail order)

• Phonix - Fraunhoferstraße 26, Munich Isarvorstadt, Di-Fr 15-19 hrs, Sa 11-16 hrs, Tel.: 089 20209966 - some awesome stuff there (alternative 80s). Lots of LPs and CDs, vera decent prices. They buy collections too.

• musicandbooks.de - http://www.musicandbooks.de/

• Saturn - yes, they have vinyl. If your looking for the doors, hendrix & pearl jam then I would recommend Saturn at the Theriesenhöhe ...they have repressings in of classic rock on a 120 / 140 gramm vinyl specifically aimed at collectors. also the Saturn on Kaufingerstraße has a section though somewhat smaller ... they even do special vinyl box sets too. the only real disadvantage is there's no decks to play these back on ...

Closed and disappeared

• Bam Bam Records at Ledererstraße 10 - near the Hofbräuhaus - was mostly dance, RnB, and electronica. Close sometime around 2004/5. Owner was a guy called Suat. http://www.bambam-records.de/

• Parasound - Hesseloherstraße 8, 80802 Munich Schwabing, Tel.: 089/335051, alex@parasound-munich.de - http://www.parasound-munich.de - close sometime around 2003.

Online record stores

• For dance go to: http://www.juno.co.uk/ - better than any record store.

External pages

• A list of ~20 record stores in Munich: rollingstone.de / record stores - note that this is somewhat out-of-date and a number of the stores listed have since closed.
