It's a long way up but worth the climb. At the top you'll find
Charlemagne Records (since 1977). Vintage records and tapes galore. Last weekend I made my first visit with Cincinnati DJ and record enthusiast Jay Gilbert ( aka
Uncle Jay Explains the News). He had a great time flipping through the stacks while I took pictures.

Tell Uncle Jay that I picked up a copy of Head, Hands and Feet's "Tracks" for a mere €50 yesterday
This would be an enjoyable place to browse. To my wife's disappointment, I sometimes say that my musical tastes stopped developing after Woodstock.
Looks like quite a place. I could spend some time here. Any 45s or just albums? Any Cliff Richard?
Bird, I think there were 45's and tapes too. I don't know about CLiff!
JB,
you were robbed! :)
Dave, then you would have loved this place!
Virg...you are the primo BHM,AL ambassadress - we're big fans of Off the Beaten Path...the weirder the better!
Looks like a classic place. I love that it's upstairs. Of course, the a.c. better be working overtime or there might be warped vinyl.
All record stores deserve props!
What fun
The stairway reminds me of an old vintage record store in Claremont, by the Claremont colleges...it was a cool place to browse...but I think it's long gone...
This is a great find V!!! Did you pick up any vinyl???
Oh yeeees, love that first photo!
