Listen Records & CDs

When Kris Burwash opened Listen Records in 2001, he knew he would be stocking his store with a lot of music from his own personal tastes. What he didn’t expect was to see a decline in CD sales and more of his regular customers migrating to his own preferred format, vinyl records.

“For years I had people telling me no one would ever buy new vinyl,” says Kris. “But I watched my CD sales drop and saw my vinyl sales surpass my CD sales around 2008. That’s when the vinyl boom started and that’s when I started catering the store to more new vinyl.”
