Thorne Records

Thorne Records is more than a record shop—it’s a love letter to music, community, and the tactile joy of vinyl. Founded by Mark Thorne, a seasoned music retailer with a passion for the LP as "the greatest artform of the 20th century," this Bruntsfield gem is a haven for collectors and casual listeners alike. From funk to folk, punk to pop, the carefully curated selection spans genres and generations, each record waiting to be discovered and cherished. But it’s not just about the records. Thorne Records thrives on personality and playfulness, with staff who double as musicians, a shop cat named Rambo Lennon Thorne, and a social media presence that's as entertaining as it is informative. Whether you're seeking a rare pressing or simply a good chat about music, you'll find a warm welcome and a wealth of knowledge behind the counter.
