Home Sweet Home part 1: Fords, New Jersey- Vintage Vinyl


For reasons beyond our control, Vinyl Revival calls not one, not two but three different tri-state area places our home when we leave the Syracuse area. So in honor of New Jersey, Brooklyn and Long Island, we are going to give you guys a little info on where we like to pick up records in all three areas. We'll start off in Jersey. While Jersey is easily our least favorite of the three places, it makes up for it (sort of) with Vintage Vinyl in Fords, New Jersey.

Vintage Vinyl has become a staple of the New Jersey music scene for the past three decades. Rolling Stone and Esquire
have both put them on their top lists of independent record stores. While their record collection is extensive, the real selling point of Vintage Vinyl is their instore performances. Bands from The Get Up Kids, to Saves the Day, to Cheap Trick have all performed there. The store provides for an intimate experience, a chance to buy some great vinyl and see some amazing bands perform.

Vintage Vinyl's best deal right now?
How about an exclusive Paul McCartney Live EP you won't find anywhere else? I'm down.
