The good news is that after 32 years, Strider Records is staying in business. The bad news is that, after 32 years, Strider Records will be closing their physical location at 22 Jones Street in the West Village at the end of this month. There have been close calls before, but this time it’s for real. I confirmed this with the owner last night via phone.
Long one of the best sources for oldies, and long out-of-print vinyl, they will remain open online at StriderRecords.com. Now through the end of the month, most of the inventory is discounted. Get yourself down to 22 Jones St or call 212-675-3040 for more information.
