Repo Records

other

The front of Repo Records features a distinct yellow sign with bold, black lettering that cuts through the visual clutter of South Street. Since nineteen eighty-six, this shop has served as a primary destination for independent music and vinyl collecting in Philadelphia. When the store first opened, owner Susan Paley stocked the shelves with the punk and alternative records that major chains ignored. Musicians and local collectors still congregate here to sift through the crates, treating the inventory as an evolving archive of sound.
