Walked out of there with a BOX FULL! This spot was an amazing find and we love that they allowed our pup in. Youll find some great gems at amazing prices. Also more than records-- books, too!

This place is an absolute gem. Prices are great and large selection. Ive found some awesome stuff here. Mainly vinyl, which I like, but also a selection of CDs if youre into that. Also be sure to check out the wall of tons of free records lining the walls

Lots of great records waiting to be found! You can walk out with a very cool, lesser known, near mint condition jazz, blues or rock and roll record for $6 or so. Digging in the bins is nirvana and required to find the one you cant live without!

Pleasant find in Gloucester, bringing back memories from three decades prior at their Newbury Street location in Boston. Much bigger store than the aforementioned location and an excellent selection at very reasonable prices. Highly recommend!!

Fantastic record store. The dollar section for both CDs and Vinyl is very impressive. Most other CDs arent above $5 which is perfect. You can also find some rare old records as well as new pressings

We love Mystery Train. If they dont have it, you probably wont find it. All kinds of records, CDs, and tapes, plus random memorabilia and posters.

A legend from Harvard Square lives on in Downtown Gloucester. Mystery Train Records has an excellent selection of used vinyl, CDs, DVDs and more. A great place to browse and lose yourself amongst the many selections of musics past.

LOVE their free record bins. Plus, Ive bought a few exclusive Pink Floyd albums and records for cheap. Great chill place -- and they dont swarm you (haha) when you walk in the door! Only if you need help.

This place is AMAZING. Mystery Train feels like it felt going into a record store in the late 80s. One of the last of a dying breed. I honestly wasnt sure places like this existed anymore. The store is huge, the selection ridiculously good, the prices excellent, and the staff are friendly. I cant wait to go back!I have a want list that I keep on my phone and its unusual for me to find more than 1 or 2 things from it (if Im lucky) at any given store. I ended up finding many things from my list, some great jazz and prog LPs that Id been hunting for some time, and paid much less than I expected. Next time I go I want to spend some more time going through the 45s and the CDs.Also, a note for those wanting to shop during the pandemic, as I was: they enforce social distancing & mask wearing, and have hand sanitizer at many spots in the store. Its spacious and well-ventilated & I felt extremely safe shopping there. Big thumbs up!

Really great selection with extremely helpful and knowledgeable staff. Prices are very fair. No complaints. I keep going back (more often than I should) with cash in hand. (Though they take cards too.) Absolutely recommended.

A very cool place for the vinyl lovers. A large array of musical genres in their original covers. It was like going back in time. You can listen to music on the available round table. Great place to visit on a lazy afternoon.

Review №27

The best vinyl experience imaginable, and an incredible stock of CDs in all genres, a wide selection of boxed sets and collectibles, and shelves of books about music and musicians (and some other neat stuff). Plan to spend a little time, as it can be addictive.

Huge warehouse-like space with wide selection of vinyl, CDs and DVDs. Tons of $1 priced CDs and there are some real treasures.

This is an institution. I love coming here and rifling through the records fax. The cinema upstairs is really great about showing cool movies, not always blockbusters.

Love this place! My first time in here was a few weeks ago. Bought a cool record for $2.50. Even if you dont buy anything it is fun to just walk around and look at everything. The people were pretty friendly too. They have cds, records...and fun vintage stuff..check it out, you wont be disappointed!

Hard to find vinyl and cds. Not too expensive, either. Takes some time and digging though. For me, that just adds to the experience, but if youre in a hurry, this place could be frustrating.
