The Record Exchange
Music Roadtrip
Description: Featured on MusicRoadTrip.com, The Record Exchange is more than Idaho’s largest independent record store—it’s a full-blown cultural landmark in downtown Boise. Since 1977, it’s been expanding the state’s musical horizons, spinning everything from classic vinyl and new releases to rare finds and a proud wall of used cassettes. Step inside and it’s a sensory overload in the best way possible: racks of records, turntables humming, espresso brewing (from Boise’s first espresso bar), and aisles stacked with everything from incense and action figures to local art and oddities you never knew you needed. The Record Exchange is a community hub where collectors, musicians, and wanderers converge—a must-stop on any musical road trip through the Northwest, where the soundtrack never really stops playing.
