Spin says Grimey's is the 8th best Indi Record Store in the country! Congrats to Mike, Doyle and the rest of the best. 8. GRIMEY'S 1604 8th Avenue S., Nashville, Tennessee Why It Rocks: Five years ago, Grimey's Records outgrew their space and moved into its current stylized, three-pedimented building, which it shares with Thirty Tigers music marketing and distribution upstairs and popular venue the Basement downstairs. Grimey's is definitely the meat of this sandwich, with an amazingly broad selection (for its size), very affordable prices, and history as a stalwart of indie cool in a town that's known for a very different kind of music scene.

Not to mention events like: Robert Randolph Listening Party – Tuesday, October 10 @ Noon Join us at noon on a Tuesday for a lunchtime listening party for the new CD from Robert Randolph & The Family Band – Colorblind.

We’ve got a boatload of hot wings from Mojo Grill on tap, plus some drinks and additional snacks. Skip out for lunch and we’ll feed you while we rock out to Colorblind. The new CD will be on sale and we’ll have some prizes and give-aways as well to sweeten the pot. HOWARD TATE...
