Vinyl Lives front cover

Vinyl Lives is an intimate look inside the walls and hearts of 25 independently owned record stores. Examining and celebrating the important cultural role of record stores in the community, Vinyl Lives turns up the volume for independent record stores in the digital age.


Vinyl Lives is the definitive story of all that's interesting, quirky, and delightful about the American Retail Record Store. Goss tackles the history, personality, and challenges within this once declining and now reemerging market segment. His comprehensive approach is both enlightening and entertaining - he sheds light on an often misunderstood and forgotten spoke on the entertainment retail hub. Give it a spin... Vinyl Lives is a great read!
