Vinyl Guru is a proudly independent record shop in the UK city of Newcastle upon Tyne. We love music and believe the best way to experience it is putting needle to wax! We have tens of thousands of new and pre-owned records of all genres and prices (from £1 to over £1,000!) available for purchase online and from our shop premises at 69 Westgate Road. Call in or [contact us](https://www.vinylguru.co.uk/pages/contact) to discover the latest new releases, re-discover old classics, find that rare 1st press you’ve been hunting for, grab a bargain, or just ask what we’d recommend!
As also prolific and long-established suppliers of vinyl record accessories, our reliable and competitively priced selection of record dividers, sleeves and cleaning fluid are some of our best selling items and favourites of customers and fellow record shops worldwide.
