I was just 8 or 9 years old when started using an turntable. First from my dad's one, then my uncles'.
Since 1980 I played on brands like Hitachi, Sony, Fisher, Samsung, Sanyo, etc.
That's why I learned a lot about turntables and vinyls to share my advice to my friends.
I'm simply an enthusiastic vinyl lover for decades and I love to share my experiences to others so I can guide them to have a same or better experience.
Trust me, I'm not an arrogant guy, just a music lover. #Turntables#Vinyls
This place is actually a music store, specifically, a store that sells second hand #vinyls. Usually, you'll find retro music lovers hanging around.
They have a small bar, serving classic @pinoy pica-pica. If there are vinyl customers around, they'd probably play the records they're buying. If not, they got cool music from my era. 🤣
Unfortunately, there's no #bike parking, but the cold beer, cool music, and laid-back vibe makes up for it .
I've been tentatively exploring the world of music from Latin America, as part of my interest in learning Spanish and in spending more time in that part of the world (eventually).
As part of that exploration, I've been spending much more time in Calle 24, mostly because it has my fave restaurants, and also because it has a fantastic vinyl record store that specializes in music from Latin America and the Caribbean.
There are so many good vinyl record shops in the Bay Area that there’s one in the Mission specializing in Latin, Carribbean and Afro soul and funk. Has lots of cumbia, funana
Going to a vinyl record show and tell event next week, which feels very San Francisco. Bring a record you love, play it there and tell people why. Even more SF: event organizers say to go to the library to borrow vinyls if you don’t have any. (It is true, SF Public Library has an excellent vinyl selection you can check out. You can also check out 100 at a time or something. I usually do 4)
