A Hidden Musical Gem
Legend Records is well worth the trek from anywhere in the city. In the business of satisfying music savvy types since 1978, this place is staffed by the most knowledgeable and friendly music lovers in town. These folks will be happy to indulge you in a conversation about your favourite lyrics, the latest concerts, or well, anything really.

Vinyl Collectors Unite
Unlike many larger retail chains whose stock reflects only best sellers and greatest hits albums, Legend Records carries a much wider selection. It’s a familiar situation: you’ve searched every store in town only to conclude that the title you’re looking for is discontinued. Before you give up entirely, pop into Legend Records to see what’s on offer. This place is known for carrying the classics as well as some more obscure material.

Musical Time Warp
Size is indeed deceptive. Despite its attic-like feel, Legend Records boasts an incredible stock of CDs, DVDs and even vinyl. Specializing in retro sounds, patrons will be delighted to stumble across their favourite records from the 1960s and 1970s. From classic rock to pop to the heavier stuff, this place has it all. Teenagers in particular will find Legend Records an interesting shopping experience. Whatever the sounds you love, Legend Records seldom disappoints. They also sell some stock on Ebay, if you can’t get to the store.
