The Record Exchange is one of my favorite places to go in STL. I'm always looking for an excuse to send some time there. I go there to kill time, to do some deep thinking, to blow off steam, and to celebrate. It's hard to describe the place as a "hidden gem," seeing as how it's housed in a former library. Heck, I still remember when it was in the smaller place, several blocks closer to my house.
The Record Exchange has an impressive array of music in just about every genre. The vinyl collection will simply amaze you. There's always good tunes playing. The staff is knowledgeable and friendly. And Jean, the guy who runs it, is just a super guy. You wanna find somebody who knows music, talk to him. A few minutes spent with Jean is always quality time.
Have I made myself clear? Do I need to go on about how and why this place makes the world a better place? I thought not. Besides, one visit, and you'll know what I mean.
