In a city where the bourbon flows and the guitars twang, Louisville’s record shops spin their own kind of magic. From the crate-digging nirvana of Guestroom Records to the punk-spirited shelves of Surface Noise, and the retro funk vibes at Better Days to the exquisitely curated selection at Matt Anthony’s Record Shop, each spot is a time machine waiting to be dropped onto your turntable. This National Vinyl Day, go on a needle adventure through the grooves of Louisville — where every dusty sleeve hides a story, a sound, and a soul.
