Bric-A-Brac Records and Collectibles

Transplanted from Logan Square to Avondale, Bric-A-Brac's brightly colored storefront still feels like the bedroom of every ’80s kid’s dreams. Mural-covered walls are lined with shelves of toys, from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles to vintage Transformers. It’s one of the only stores in town where you can pick up a Clash cassette, a VHS copy of Blade Runner and some E.T. earrings in one fell swoop. All of this supplements a highly curated selection of punk and garage rock records, including a healthy number of releases from local bands and archival LPs issued through the shop's own label.
