Dufus Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 I'm off to Los Angeles in a few weeks and though it's to visit the Wife's Family I may get a couple of days escape to look for some vinyl. Could anyone help with some tips on the best record shops to visit, dealers who may welcome a visit or any other tips for my stay. I'd be looking for 60's soul, 50's R&B/Blues. I have done some online research but hoped that the Soul Source knowledge base would bring me more luck. Appreciate any help given...

Robbk Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 I'll be curious to see what people write here. I didn't know there was any unpicked place there to find, anymore. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Dufus Posted June 14, 2017 Author Share Posted June 14, 2017 Thanks for the rose bowl tip, looks good and the wife might find some more "junk" for our home! Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Soul Shrews Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 Dufus you could try a PM to Mike Vague a member on here and LA record dealer. Not seen or heard from him for a few years tho so maybe he"s not busy these days ? Maybe a PM to Greg Belson would be a good idea. Good luck !
