Doug and Lillian at Absolute Vinyl are always really friendly to me. They remember me by name every time I walk in. Doug is competent in grading records; the condition is listed on the price tag and I’ve never had to second guess it. Prices are always fair, I’m always finding gems here. Absolute sells LPs, 45rpm singles, CDs, cassettes and even some 8 track tapes. There’s a large selection of both used and new LPs. They also sell (primarily vintage) audio equipment. I’ve seen lots of turntables and receivers, tape decks and dedicated CD players

Now, if you are an appreciator of vinyl records and music all together, this place is definitely where to go. If you want deep cuts, and even reccomendations for obscure vinyl, well the dude that runs the joint is more than haooy to oblige. Seriously, I may be dabblin' a bit into vinyl records, just a visit here had me assured it will be well worth my investments. Dude lives and breaths vinyl. Only real bad thing I got to say is the place is extremely limited in electronic genre. But he makes up for it in solid jazz obscurities.

This is the best spot for Vinyl full stop! I make the trip down from Fort Collins often and always leave with something I didn't think I would be able to find locally. I was able to finish out my R.E.M. collection AND got a far better deal locally than I would have with a certain online marketplace. They CONSISTANTLY have better prices and have super honest gradings. I am in the endgame for my collection and they seem to be getting the rare ones. They owner also seems to have an encyclopedic music knowledge, so if there is something nonspecific you are after, there is a good chance he may have something that you never knew you existed. The added magic is the "discount" section! They have a better selection & quality than some of the other places "main event" stuff. Follow the Insta for the flips and they will even reserve some unicorns for you! They seem to be getting a ton of stock lately, so I was able to score some stuff I have been after for years. I have never left empty handed.

Absolute Vinyl is the best vinyl shop on the Front Range. The selection is great, reasonably priced and the records are cleaned and graded. Besides vinyl they have a nice selection of vintage stereo gear for sale. I recently had an older turntable repaired there too. Truly a vinyl lovers paradise! Doug and crew are wonderful folks. If I could leave a 6 star review I would!

Music lover's dream. I am led to discover artists and records I've never heard of every time I stop in. Doug is an encyclopedia, and will steer you in the direction you seek. Music and good friends, the best combination!

By far my favorite record shop in Colorado. Everything is so fairly priced, graded perfectly, and obviously picked with great care. I have never walked out of this shop empty handed. I will always make a stop here whenever I’m in Longmont, and I strongly urge everyone else to give them a visit too!
