Looney Tunes is an independent record store in West Babylon that has been family owned and operated since 1971. While the business has a website, they don’t offer their entire in-store stock online and suggest that customers come to the in-store location to see the new releases, pre-orders, and indie-retail exclusives. Looney Tunes carries more than vinyl records and discs; they also offer posters, T-shirts, hats, CBD products, stickers, incense speakers, clocks, and more. The staff is happy to answer questions and help patrons track down specific records. Prices are reasonable, and products can be shipped directly to buyers. Plus, the venue features a cool stage in the middle of the store and hosts autograph signing events and performances from artists on a monthly basis!

Voted Best Record Store on Long Island for nearly a decade, owner Karl Groeger opened Looney Tunes in 1971 and it soon became one of the top record stores in the country.

There is a stage in the middle of the shop for live performances and signings, and no trip here would be complete without picking up a $3 “mystery box” of vinyl, always bound to satisfy and surprise!
