What People Are Saying About C D Alley

The Editor

Contributor

Citysearch

In Short – CD Alley specializes in what's loosely called alterna-rock--and their inventory tends toward obscure and rare vinyl and CDs from that genre. It's just what the store's clientele craves, since most of the shoppers--and staff--are culled from the local music scene. It gets high marks for having plenty of cool CDs, obscure and foreign music press, and a knowledgeable, helpful staff.

HELL YES, CD ALLEY!!!

by Geitfaust

It's small, and easy to miss, but try not to for within the walls await towers of mighty CD's and vinyls, sitting silently for a host with which they will form a totally awesome symbiotic relationship.

Basically CD alley is awesome, and is now the ONLY place to get CD's in chapel hill now that's schoolkid's got.

Even when Schoolkids was around CD alley was better. I've found so many obscure LP's and EP's there.

And their local music selection cannot be matched.

  • Pros: Awesome selection, the people are nice
  • Cons: Can be a bit crowded since it's small, parking on franklin is hell so catch a bus

The best record store in Chapel Hill. Staff are very friendly, knowledgeable, and unpretentious. Fine selection (but few duplicates), and tons of used CDs. Best prices you'll find anywhere.

  • Pros: Value, Service

The Extras:

Catch some of Chapel Hill's up-and-coming musicians tucked away in the corner during frequent in-store performances. Sure, it's small, hot and cramped, but you'll be sweating pure rock and roll.
