User Reviews for Zion's Gate Records

4 Star Rating: Recommended

I agree, this place has a nice vibe: Friendly people and really the only Reggae selection in these parts. Jive Time Records is also known to put out crucial selections of roots reggae and dub as well. Zions Gate also stocks alot of metal, drum n bass, hiphop and rock sections even. I love the wall of picture disc metal LP's. Mostly reissue stock but I'm into collecting for the music anyways! Lots of rare and obscure stuff you cannot find at other shops. Traceblends

Pros: comprehensive to the genres they specialize

Cons: parking

I like the vibe at Zion's Gate: one part Cap Hill hippy, one part militant revolutionary. Coming off the busy street, this store is small and can get crowded easily just due to the location and congestion near the door. They have more than just reggae; over the years I have pleased with some of the older joints I have found there and they carry a lot of extra merchandise as well. Everyone is really nice there and the pretensions DJs tend to keep their distance.

Pros: reggae selection, good service

Cons: is a little cramped

Editor's Review

A staple for local DJs, this vinyl shop is a music-hipster must.  See the full editorial review.

Insider Tips

Know Before You Go

Zion's Gate encourages everybody to listen to his or her music before taking it home. DJs can test out vinyl--and their skills--on the store's turntables. The salespeople are always willing to play CDs over the speakers.
