Grand Avenue Records

Hands down my favorite record store in the valley. They have unique records from every genre, but I’ve stocked up on a lot of cool world beat and jazz records there. The staff there is really good about introducing you to new music and making recommendations. They haven’t missed yet; every record they’ve recommended has been fire.

I’ve been taking DJ lessons from Cocoe since October of 2025 and I have learned so much from him he’s a great teacher & mentor! Killian his co-operator also was able to source me some really clean Technics turntables for a really good price & he was willing to work with me on the price. This is hands down one of thee best record stores in Arizona! They also are currently hosting Open Decks sessions every Sunday from 12-5pm for local DJ’s in the scene. I am very grateful for this store & their staff for helping me on my DJ and musical journey thank you guys!

I came in for my first time on August 9th, 2025 after work & my plan was really just to browse & not buy anything because I spend way to much money as is on Vinyl. After checking out the store I ended up leaving with a few records of course, but that’s not the point. The point is, CoCoe & his cute dog were the highlight of it all. This store gave me HUGE Cali vibes specifically San Diego, Barrio Logan Beatbox Records vibes. And I love it! I’m huge into collection northern soul, Chicano soul, oldies, etc. They had so many genres & the equipment & the store was very well layed out & organized. CoCoe is a breathe of fresh air in the Arizona records scene. His customer service was the reason I left with records & made a connection to the point to where I’ll be a regular from now on. I will recommend this place to all my friends & clients & I wish them nothing but success as this location is truly in a great spot as well!

Very nice owner. I stopped by the store during my business trip, and got the store's address through Google Maps search. I was looking for indie country music cassette tapes and was a bit disappointed in hearing that they've just offloaded 1000+ tapes to some collector and hence for now are primarily focusing on vinyl records. But the owner still brought out his "private collection" of dozens of cassettes, patiently went through them, and made some great recommendations. We had a great chat and I even got a chance to show off my portable tape player through the owners sound system. At the end, I got five cassettes at very reasonable prices. Highly recommended. I sincerely hope the business sustains, and look forward to the next visit to the store when I stop by Phoenix.

Great selection of records, cool vibes and amazing people. Found a couple of records I was looking for some time and got outstanding recommendations for jazz and funk. 🔥
