There are bigger, hipper and certainly newer places to buy vinyl, but there aren't any better than Hymie's Vintage Records. Owners Laura and Dave Hoenack — a couple young enough to have grown up on CDs — took over the shop in 2009 and moved it to a more workable space just as the resurgence of vinyl set in. Their timing was as good as their inventory. They maintain a deep stock of collectibles, rarities, cool 45s and lots of odd/obscure/questionable records priced cheap enough to take a chance on. 3820 E.
