This is by far my favorite record store in Baltimore. The staff is so kind and knowledgeable and more than willing to help you find what you’re looking for– and the selection and prices are great. Brand new records range from $20-$30, but they have many used options and even a large box filled to the brim with records for only $1 on the back wall of the store.
I appreciate how this store goes out of its way to support local artists by promoting their music- the front of the store has flyers about different artists’ upcoming shows or music release dates. I especially recommend it for those who like punk- the owner’s collection is massive! However, it is a dream come true for ANY vinyl collector and has all genres ranging from but not limited to Rap, Indie, Jazz, Metal, and Reggae. The walls are covered with hundreds of punk posters and flyers and the store even sells some unique printed posters with artists like Al Green. Celebrated Summer has so much to offer, and you should come in to check it out next time you find yourself in Hampden.
