Downtown Portland's Vinyl Headquarters since 1982

Established in 1982,  2ND AVENUE RECORDS is a quintessential brick and mortar independent record store.   Our store is centrally located in downtown Portland at the intersection of SW 2nd Avenue and SW Harvey Milk (formerly Stark Street) in the historic Governor Building.  Originally located in  a 600 square foot storefront,  we now reside in a  more spacious storefront in the same building.  Our stock consists primarily of new and used records - new releases and classics - but you will also find an ample stock of CDs and cassettes.  Genres include rock,  jazz, soul, funk, rap, blues, reggae, 60s,  a good supply of metal & punk,  and more.    In addition, we have a HUGE  selection of t-shirts.   We buy record collections (cassettes, CDs and  t-shirts as well).   No appointment is  necessary to sell  but a phone call in advance is  helpful.
