Record Mania

De Pijp


Fantastically old-school, Record Mania stocks vinyl (singles and LPs) and CDs, including rare recordings by artists including Johnny Cash, JJ Kale, Eric Clapton, Def Leppard, the Beatles and the Wailers. The shop, with old posters, stained-glass windows, and records and CDs embedded in the floor, is a treasure in itself.
