Big Dig Records

Cool place, solid selection. Unpretentious and unassuming, chill vibes, with great music playing while you shop. Prices were affordable and fair and I had some great pulls from the punk bin. I appreciated the dedicated Rockabilly bin. Staff were nice, attentive without being overbearing: sometimes just a nod or eye contact as someone walks in is enough to say “I see you, I work here, let me know if you need help. Like this place a lot and will come back next time I’m around Cambridge.

A great place with a wide array of media! Was able to find a large selection of cassettes and vinyls to choose from, and was even able to get a decent in-store credit for some vinyl collections I didn’t need anymore. They were honest, helpful, laid back, and professional during my visit, and I’ll definitely be back in the future!

This is a great little shop just behind the Somerville Theatre (great for killing time before a show or any visit to Davis Square). They have a smaller shop but there is a ton of music packed into the space - great punk and indie sections, and from what I saw everything was reasonably priced. I will be returning!

Great store! I enjoyed digging around the bins, reliving my college years, and found a few vinyl gems, not to mention a great SACD and a couple of vintage blank cassettes (real CrO2!). Their stuff is in good shape, very clean, well organized and curated, and fairly priced (seemed to be at the low end of Discogs or even below). The guys there were super nice, too. Check them out.

Great record store and all the boys who work there are really cute ;-)

Great prices and friendly staff. I recently purchased my first record player and came to Big Dig to buy my first assortment of records. I bought 16 records for $100! I listen to mostly funk, soul, and jazz and found a great selection of all these -- from these, I selected Quincy Jones, Duke Ellington, Louis Armstrong, Aretha Franklin, Earth Wind and Fire, and many others! Will be coming back to Big Dig in the near future.

Great shop in north Cambridge. Always a steady stream of hard to find albums going up on the wall at great prices! No price gouging here. Had to make room in my personal collection and brought down a stack of records. The owner promptly returned my call and we made a deal the same day. Highly recommend. Meter parking both side of Mass ave near the shop. Highly recommend BDR. Keep up the great work!

Incredible selection and fair prices. Could spend days in there.

Great new-ish shop in North Cambridge. Nice vibe, good selection, great staff. Most certainly worth a visit.
