Shake it Record is were all of the cool kids hang out! A long standing anchor of the Northside business district, Shake it is a "real" record store complete with cool sales associates that will steer you to the best new tunes.
This store also plays an important part in the Cincinnati music scene by encouraging local music in lots of ways.
If you love music, you will find your passion understood here!
Maybe you like music. Maybe you like music that you can hold in your hand. Maybe you like music you actually pay for. If any of these maybes describe you and you find yourself in the Greater Cincinnati area, you probably already know about Shake It Records.
It's been called the best record store in town, and maybe even in the midwest but as a customer for years I can honestly say that it's the best record store in the country. I know, I haven't been to them all, but the ones I have been to pale in comparison.
Upstairs you get a pop culture overload with their selection of used CD's & DVD's. In addition, what is often overlooked is the massive amount of other products they peddle. From books to strange but funny toys and magazines, Shake It has alot to choose from.
But wait, is it vinyl you crave? Wanna spend an hour "crate digging?" No problem, just take the stairwell down to the vinyl vault where you can dig for wax as long as you want. Used and new records are always jumping off the shelves and into my hands. I gotta say though, it's the dudes that work at Shake It that set it apart. These are not your typical High Fidelity music snobs but instead are regular guys who run a regular business and care alot about their customers and the community.
So whether you are local and a regular, or are in from out of town and want to know what record store to check out, Shake It wins.
Thanks for sharing this information. I really like your way of expressing the opinions and sharing the information. It is good to move as chance bring new things in life, paves the way for advancement, etc. But it is well known to everyone that moving to new location with bulk of goods is not an easy task to move or shift from one place to other place because I have experienced about that and I face the problem like that. There I go to village near to my city faced that problem there.
