They always have a great selection of 80s goth, indie, and new wave records. Staff are wonderful, and last time I was in I found a UK original pressing of a rarer Smiths single for a very reasonable price! ?

Staff was very kind and helpful, but the vinyls were not in the the best condition, and quite overpriced. I checked on different places online, and some things were half the price and in better condition. Can't say for the rest of the items in stock, like cassettes or cameras.

Picked up a few jazz records I've been looking for for a loooong time! Great finds and everytime I'm in town I stop in a see what treasures I can find at Shady Rest.

As a white male having a midlife crisis, I'm obligated to wear skinny jeans and walk into every record store I see. But legit, this is one of my favorites. Tiny store in Pilsen with a lot of personal touch. Everything is right priced and not at crazy markup, and she has a curated bookshelf of fascinating books, mostly or entirely first edition. Love this place.

I found a stack of fantastic soul 45s in this shop, a few of which have become my favorite songs in my collection. Don’t let the small size of the store fool you. They have a wonderful selection, especially if you’re looking for new and used hip hop and world music. Very friendly and welcoming staff.

Love this record store, the fact that it exists in the south side is the cherry on top. ?

My favorite record store in this part of town! I've gotten some of my favorite albums ever from here, and even discovered some new ones! Also a great selection of cassettes and music hardware! The shop owner's super friendly too!
