Left of the Dial Records

"This place was a very pleasant find. The store is spacious and clean. Though not the biggest inventory, what they do have is great. You should have no problem finding quality albums in many diverse genres. The organization is amazing, which makes browsing a joy. Prices are very fair."

"Very solid record store with a neatly organized and large rock section. If you're new to the scene or this is your one true passionate hobby, this store as well as their staff is a good start! They have mostly rock, as expected, and a sprinkle of a lot of other genres but it's not as big or diverse as I hoped. This wasn't a big deal though and I always have a good time looking through records. There's a lot of boxes of cheap/used vinyls that you can sift through as well. The shop guy was sooo nice and friendly and gave some great recommendations to discover new music as well (Thanks for the Robin Trower recommendation). So if you're feeling experimental he'll help you out for sure. He's very knowledgeable and I'd highly recommend asking any questions I'll check out some more record stored in the area first but I'll definitely be coming back here again after"

"I have yet to check out lotd's new location on Tustin, but I frequented the old 4th St location and loved the punk vibes! For anyone into local punk or old classic scene it was the perfect hang out spot to listen to real records, immerse yourself in your favorite music, and to expand your musical horizons. Oh and the best part by far was how they'd have open mic "nights" where literally any startup punk (or any) bands often started their careers! I'll never forget an awesome one-kid-show in which the youngster played 4-5 instruments (& made a great show) and when I asked him what his inspiration was he responded, "well the homies didn't show up today and I didn't want to cancel." Yeah only at Left of the Dial!"

"Best record shop in southern california. Incredibly friendly and knowledgeable staff, huge selection (new and used), and has a great range of modern and vintage equipment (amps, receivers, turntables, etc!)"
