Joint Custody

Hell yeah. Dope record, zines, memorabilia, and freak stuffs. This place rules.

Very cool record shop - fantastic selection in rock and metal. Super nice guy (owner?) at the front counter. Totally recommend checking out if you are in the area or visiting.

My good friend John Puerto Vinyl, recommended me this store. This place has a unique way of treating their customers, prices are always right, and every single vinyl is always in almost perfect conditions, my new favorite record store. I would give an extra star because it’s the only store that I’ve been that has a bathroom, this makes the visit more comfortable if you’re in the needs of using it.

Amazing record shop. Really cozy basement vibe with cool art. They have a great variety of records. I found a few I was looking for, for a long time. The guy at the register was also really nice. I recommend this place.

The guys are amazing.

They allowed my dog Rosemary to roam about the store, while they made the record selling process go smoothly and quickly as possible.

Down to earth conversations as well!

I’LL BE BACK

Joint Custody is the best record store in the country -- and one of the best in the world outside of Japan. Fair prices and extremely well curated. There is something here for listeners and collectors of seemingly every genre: jazz, hardcore, rock, gospel, country, etc. etc. You'll find something in their "Just In" section that you won't find anywhere else every single time.

Very nice store. Organized. Clean. Friendly staff. Prices are legit. Many fun bins for deep diving. Highly recommended.

By far the coolest record store in DC. A HUGE selection, top-notch staff down for recommendations, and tons of free flair when you make a purchase. An essential visiting spot for anyone into the Dischord catalog or rare records in general.

This place was awesome! They had a great selection of used vinyl and the employee was coolcool he helped me find what I wanted. Him and another person also made some nice comments about my shirt which made my day (they even took a picture with me). The new arrivals section was full of some great albums. I walked out with Lennon, Zappa, and Waits for a very reasonable price.

Went in for a browse hoping to find a vinyl for a friend. The staff (1 guy) was friendly and gave me enough space to look around. They've got a nice location and a pretty large selection.

As far as prices go, I think it will be relatively hard to find something in this store for the Amazon Prime price. This store is more for the experience of going through a large collection and finding something a bit more obscure that peaks your interest. Definitely worth the time if that is your sort of thing.

Best record shop in the area. Great Soul, Jazz, Funk, Hip-hop, Reggae and African Selections. Discount section has so many gems. Overall great place for music lovers old and young, looking to build their collection

This place is one of my favorite stores. I don't collect (and don't plan to start) records, but this place has quite a selection of records that always peak my interest (just to hang on the wall). I typically visit this place to find an awesome vintage hat or some sort of other vintage clothing. They also have a bunch of interesting pins and other small accessories that make this shop great.

Easily my go-to record shop in the district

This is one of the best record shops in DC. The staff have excellent taste in music, and last time I visited I found several records I'd been hunting for unsuccessfully for years.

Lots of curated clothes and records to sift through in a tight, but cozy environment. Came here on a whim with the will to explore, and left with a record and a vintage sweater! Plus, the lovely people tending the register were sharing local family owned food recommendations, just to give a sense of the environment and people. Modest curation of music, mostly alternative and punk (makes sense for DC). Some older alternative cassettes too, which is always great to see! Loads of fantastic vintage t shirts in the front, leading on to sweaters and jackets in the back. Definitely worth a visit!

They have a great selection of constantly rotating used records, in all genres. They really exceed in hip hop, metal, punk/hardcore. I always find at least 10 things to buy.

Good selection of records. Employees are nice and knowledgeable, but you engage them instead of the other way around. Player to yest records is available.

The place is really nice, but what I loved he most is that they have a good classic rock section and the records are in excellent conditions, so this place is a must if you like buying records

Great group of friends that are very knowledgeable. I've been shopping here for more than two years for a lot of my vintage clothes. They have if not THE best one of the best selections in this area. The prices are very fair as well.
