Rochester, NY -
papa ray's vintage vinyl roadshow

We visit Rochester NY, the home of the impressive 13,000 square foot store, Record Archives. Celebrating his 50th year, owner and musician Richard Storms has one of the most impressive stores we've ever seen, also having a live music venue and bar called the Backroom Lounge. We also go to Bop Shop Records, renowned for the high quality of their used vinyl - the selection goes from Ska, Punk, as well as Blues, Soul, and Funk. And before we left, we couldn't miss going to The Hi-Fi Lounge, once known as THE CD EXCHANGE - which has had its doors open for over thirty years.
