Boogie-woogie to the Seattle blues at the city's largest all-jazz music store.

In Short
Walk down the 16 narrow steps and bebop your way into Bud's Jazz Records. Although Bud Young sold this business years ago, you can still find him joking around with customers in the store. Also an art gallery, Bud's specializes in "jazz in all its forms," from Dixieland and swing to bebop, avant-garde and contemporary. You won't find smooth or pop jazz in the well-organized rows and rows of music--just the good stuff.
