What can I say? FBC has been around for over 25 years, has a ridiculously large selection of used CDs and vinyl and the staff actually knows a lot about the music they sell - you won't find some uninterested 16 year old behind the counter but rather someone who is passionate about music and can help. Their prices are very fair and they are a local, independent record shop. If you are looking for a place to pick up stuff for your collection, this is the only serious choice.

When I was growing up, there came a point in my life where I started to broaden out my horizons and start listening to music that wasn’t played on our local rock stations or MTV. My Dad gave me three vinyl albums with which to begin my quest into the world of great music: The Who’s Who’s Next, Emerson, Lake and Palmer’s Brain Salad Surgery and some random Grand Funk album. For the next several years, I amassed quite a collection of vinyl albums, both from classic rock artists and 7inch singles from punk bands, another genre I had begun to listen to. FBC, when I was able to get to Lansing, was a great place to pick up vinyl records. They have since expanded their business into used cd’s and dvds as well. Staff is extremely knowledgeable about many different genres of music and can provide very reliable recommendations if you’re looking to discover something a bit new.
