Colony Records

Used to frequent Colony Records on Broadway all the time when I was a kid.
The store is in a great location, right near Times Square.

Used to buy the old LP's and audio cassettes, but I was most impressed
with their amazing selection of sheet music. It was fun finding sheet music
for tunes that you couldn't find anywhere else. One of the few old school
record stores left in NYC.
