Any good used vinyl stores in Sacramento, California?

I will be passing through Sacramento, California during the holidays, and will have a couple of hours to spare while my mother visits a friend.

Anyone know of any good/great used vinyl stores in the eastern section of town (near Charmichael)?

Thanks.

 

Not many in East Sacramento, but there is one or two you can find in the Yellow pages, mostly in midtown. You can also visit Tower Records #1 and #2, in addition to 3 other Tower records (Florin Mall, Watt Ave and Sunrise Mall).

 

The Beat: 17th and J Street (far and away the best vinyl store in Sacto)

Dimple Records: Santa Clara and Douglas (Roseville) / Arden Way (Sacramento)

Esoteric Records: El Camino and Yorktown (across the street from County Club Centre)

When you get into town, if you want directions let me know.

 

You will want to go The Beat - it is as good as LA for vinyl. Just a few blocks from the Capitol.

 

That's it, thanks for the recall. The Beat is the one to see. I went there many times when I was at UC Davis.

 

I concur. If you have time for only one store, The Beat is the place to go, period.

The original Tower Records store is at 16th & Broadway, but it's a run-of-the-mill Tower store, IMO.
