Out of the Past Records

Sixty-nine music and DVD stores show up for Chicago on SiteCity, and they're not clustered in one corner of downtown. The 60657 zip carries eight listings, the biggest single grouping, while 60622 has four and a handful of others, including 60619, 60625, 60640, and 60643, each hold three. That spread means you're as likely to find a shop near your neighborhood as one across town, so check the zip before you plan a trip.

Most of these listings come with a way to reach the business: 66 have a phone number and 58 list a website. None of the 69 are tagged Sponsored, since paid placement hasn't been switched on for this category in Chicago yet, so the order you're browsing is plain database order, not a promoted lineup. Call two or three that look convenient before you drive over, since hours and inventory at a small record or DVD shop can shift fast. If you own one of these stores and your listing is missing a phone number or site link, you can claim it and fill in the blanks yourself, which saves a customer in 60625 or 60643 a wasted trip.
