What are you looking for in a record store?

Funny albums hanging on the walls? Check.
An elaborate display of the monochromatic Smiths 7″ and LP covers? Yes.
Wacky rock ‘n’ roll memorabilia like Kiss dolls? Got it.
Cool band T-shirts declaring your undying love for The Modern Lovers, The Byrds, or The Replacements? Affirmative.
Obscure arthouse, cult and foreign film DVDs? Oui.
A regularly rotating stock of good, cheap used CDs and vinyl? That’s a go.
Two cool dudes that know their shit (one runs a weekly CD stall at Glebe Markets), and play rad music? Totally.**Egg Records has been a staple of the Newtown scene for years. It’s a homely place packed with character, where you can browse for hours and get schooled on good music. What’s more, the guys that work there won’t even look down their nose at you for buying Nelly’s NELLYVILLE.
