I love this little record store it is so unique and has a lot of character. I would recommend Sidetracks to anyone interested in collecting. 10/10 for quality, quantity and diversity. It seems that Vinyl and CDs are the primary media sold here . There are cassettes. Plenty of posters and artwork.

This is one of the best record stores I have been to. Totally cool ! Great location at the edge of the Historic District, and the owner, Cal, is supremely genuine and friendly. Sidetracks music has been here 8+ years and has an immense selection of vinyl & cd's alongside stereo equipment, speakers, and various other, unique items. There is parking directly in front of the store so you have zero excuses to not go in here!

Great selection, a little light on Metal, but extremely friendly proprietor.

The real deal. Crates to dive into, classic vibe. Walked away with new acquisitions for the collection. A real endangered species.

Visiting the area and went looking for vinyl. Selection of used vinyl was pretty slim here. Lots of new records and they seemed to be catering to UVA students as there was a lot of Zeppelin, Floyd, Radiohead, etc. Prices were high on the new stuff. There was a small section of previous RSD releases so that's cool. Two employees were working and neither even said hello so not a great vibe.

I was highly disappointed in the attitude and low ball offer from the owner. The place at first seems like a great little record store. A little pricey then other places. But once I disagreed with the owner it was a very uncomfortable experience. Would not recommend any selling or trading to this business.

Owner: bring in your cds and we'll check em out. You: burn gas and time. Owner, in Lalaland: we don't take cds...

The owner is very friendly and genuine. The vinyl section is more used than new but the new stuff is very eclectic. There is even a local vinyl selection. The prices are fair and the variety is great. A must stop for record collectors.

Excellent $1 and $2 vinyl choices. Fun little shop in a great location. Great choice if you have a kid just getting into vinyl or are a serious collector, and great location relative to the downtown mall, Paradox Pastry, and the ACAC.

My favorite spot to buy records, all are fairly priced and the atmosphere in the store is good. I’d recommend going there to look around and you might just find your new favorite record.
