The Sound Garden-Baltimore 1616 Thames Street, Baltimore, MD 21231

"The place has an amazing vibe!! I really like how it looked super eclectic. The staff were not that friendly. No one greeted me and they came by (still not saying hello) to reorganize albums as I was trying to shop. One guy was super helpful in directing me to records but the very very very limited selection of R&B, soul and rap vinyls was so disappointing. I guess maybe an online solution is better if you are not looking for Rock/Pop. My rating is based on the staffs interaction with me and the almost non-existent selection of none Rock/Pop options."

"Excellent shop! Ability to shop their in store inventory online and arrange for same day pickup, also their website tells you exactly where to find albums in shop! Amazing selection and fair prices as well as super customer service! Best metal selection in all of Baltimore City and County, I know because I've looked! Bonus points as I was short a dollar and they covered me and said, "we'd hate to see you have to put an album back over a dollar"!"

"Spent many years shopping here. As a 64 yr old industrial strengh metal head & songwriter, I can unequivocally say they are the absolute best! If you want it, you need it, you got it. Jazz, Rap, Metal, Country, they have it all. Give it a shot, the crew there are helpful and friendly & very knowledgeable. Put it on your list it's a fun shopping experience."

"I've been collecting records since 1976 and this is the best record store ever, and I've been to more than a few. It's almost always bustling with happy people. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable. Their records are always organized, tidy, and all are priced fairly and consistently. I've scored many gems here!"

"An iconic record store if ever there was one. Serious music lovers could easily spend hours here browsing. Fun to see photos of all of the musicians who have visited scattered throughout the store."
