Vinyl on MyMind

In addition to Offbeat, here are a few more of our favorite spots to find something new - or old - to spin.

Blast Off Vintage

From matching fits to frocks galore, Blast Off Vintage is one of the most glorious and unique collections of vintage, retro and second-hand clothing and accessories you’ll find in Salem, plus they have skateboard gear, host all-ages music shows and sell records, too! Although it’s not a large selection, it’s always a fun one. You never really know what you’ll find until you see it for yourself. 860 High St NE, facebook.com/blastoffvintage

Furbish, A Salvage Place

While Furbish is a vintage shop of all sorts first and foremost, you can be guaranteed to find a well-curated collection of vinyl here. Whether you are looking for music or something for the aesthetic, you might find your next classic listen, or the perfect album cover to amp up your wall decor. 1185 12th St SE, furbishsalvage.com

Drum Bug Music

Filling a void in downtown Salem, Drum Bug Music opened a brick-and-mortar shop in Pringle Park Plaza in 2023 that combines the owners two passions: drums and vinyl. If you are looking for a kit, drum parts or supplies, they’ve got you covered. And if you are looking for vinyl records, CDs, cassettes or music-related books, they’ve got you covered on that, too. 345 High St SE, vintagedrumbug.com

Ranch Annex

Established in 1982, Ranch Records is an icon on the Salem music scene. Although the traditional brick-and-mortar store closed in 2020, the Ranch Annex, regularly refreshed with new/old albums and other music memorabilia, is buzzing away inside Engelberg Antiks. 148 Liberty St NE, facebook.com/ranchrecordssalem
