2006-09-01 08:03:11   Now in their 4th (?) location, Lakeshore has the best selection in town for the type of music I’m interested in. Unfortunately that “preview any CD” service they have means they are really selling some used CD’s for full price. However, if they have another unopened copy, they will sell you one instead of the preview copy. Regardless, they still provide a great local service and offer one of the few locations in town to find unexpected musical treasures. One of the best benefits is the opportunity to have the in-person shopping experience that the convenience of online shopping takes away from those of us who delight in the in-store search. —ZedOmega

2007-06-08 15:03:27   They have a great selection because of their focus on niche genres and artists (which happen to be the majority of what I listen to). —TravisOwens


2007-10-08 15:13:34   I enjoy going here and browsing. I like getting new-to-me bands from the used CD rack. They're also wonderful and sweet to my dog, which is fun for my dog and for me. —FirstLast

2008-04-08 09:11:16   They have the most helpful staff of any music store in Rochester and they genuinely enjoy showing people new music. Prices are always reasonable and chances are if there's a new independent release you're looking for, they have it. —CraigCeremuga


2008-04-08 09:49:33   Are they no longer selling designer vinyl toys? I used to be able to buy Dunnys and Labbits here... any ideas? —KimBee


2008-10-14 23:08:24   Dunnys, Labbits, etc. are covering the entire counter - hard to miss them, are you sure you were in the right store? —deanadeana


2008-10-15 11:26:35   Yes I was in the right store, but over six months ago. It's possible they decided to pick the toys back up. Last time I was in there in the spring they said they were no longer carrying them. I just order directly from KR or Atomic Books in maryland. —KimBee
