    Went In To Ask For A Scratch Record .. The Guy Made A Weird Remark About Rap Music .. Felt I Was Racially Profiled To Be Honest .. Don’t Believe Me? Go In There And Be Brown And Ask For A Scratch Record .. Terrible Service .. Felt Like I Stepped Into The South In 1935 .. The Young Woman Behind The Counter Seemed Very Helpful It Was The Older Gentleman Who Looked Like Hillbilly’s Uncle That Was Pretty Rude .. He Even Had Customers Join In With Humiliating Me .. I’ve Given This Store Business In The Past But Won’t Anymore .. Terrible Shame

    Super helpful and friendly staff. Awesome selection. Easy to navigate. Easy parking. And fun events! It's worth the hour drive for us.

    love this place so much but when they do photo ops with bands they don’t let you have your phone out?? which makes absolutely no sense. every other record store that has in stores lets you record and take selfies and whatever it’s ridiculous that we can’t have our phones out. they don’t provide a reason either. it’s not fair for people who have anxiety who can’t remember meeting their favorite band afterwards. i understand they have a professional photographer but that genuinely does not matter to me. i’d rather have it on my phone so i can post after. AT LEAST have someone who can record from the side on your phone so you can remember the interaction. it’s 2023. let us have our phones out. it makes me not want to go here to in stores anymore.

    just came here for the waterparks in-store... they completely rushed the meet and greet, i think i said 2 sentences to parx in total. the whole interaction lasted MAYBE 45 seconds. also didn't have time to do the pose i wanted to do 😭 this would have less stars if parx werent the nicest ppl ive ever met in my life. we also couldnt have our phones out for some reason that they did not provide??? not happy with looney tunes but very happy that i met my favorite people ever so they get 3 stars

    It’s conveniently located and just a short drive from me, for all my music related needs. I love this place, but… I’m starting to reconsider how often I stop by. I will say, some staff members are clearly not happy for some reason and every time I have gone there as of lately, I don’t get that warm welcoming feeling I used to get. I also don’t appreciate being ignored while I’m waiting in front of the register to pay. Mostly one particular staff member who does this. I would look into this a little further so this awesome place doesn’t lose business over this.

    It's truly a hidden gem for all vinyl music lovers. I've purchased three players, including the one in the photo. The candles & Bowie vinyl were purchased there, too. And meeting Corey Taylor there last month was really, really awesome, too. They have body jewelry as well. I can write a lot - just go for yourself and see.

    I had the distinct pleasure of taking my daughter to the AJR signing on 11/13/2023. Needless to say, my husband and I spent two hours in the Looney Tunes store waiting for their arrival. When I tell you that the staff was exceptional, I cannot express that enough. They allowed us to hang out in the store, the managers spent time with us and chatted it up. Steve, he was amazing. This place is incredible. The selection of music is off the charts, if you want it, they have it. Please go see them for anything you need. I would drive there from Philadelphia again, just for the experience.

    First experience was on Record Store Day, and let me say right off the bat I can't wait to go back. On top of a huge selection (used, new, exclusive, you name it, they got it) for all your music needs, the staff is a delight to talk to and are incredibly knowledgeable and more than willing to help you with any questions you have. Plenty of parking nearby and a local business that I am very proud and happy to support, a must visit for any music lover.

    Very rude, condescending, and clueless older guy with glasses who looks like a bitter failed musician that had to settle for working in a record shop instead. He can’t tell the difference between scratches on a record and cleaning fluid, as he stuffed the records back in like he had bear paws. Another employee co-signed what I said. Tried to pay pennies, and the drive was not worth it at all. Discogs or Infinity Records is the way to go for selling records. This place is trash.

    Best vinyl record store on Long Island in my opinion. If they don't have what your looking for they will order it for you if they can. Great, knowledgeable and helpful staff also.

  • 4/5 Jairo M. 3 months ago on Google • 10 reviews New
    Diverse collection of music. They didn’t have specific bands I was looking for but the staff is extremely helpful and friendly. The atmosphere is very cool too. Feels like you’re at someone’s house going through their music collection.

    There is everything to love about Looney Tunes. Great selection of music and paraphernalia. I always walk out with more than I went in for, there I always something playing in the store that I didn't know I needed in my collection. The staff is really great, helpful and always pleasant.

    I was just recently at Looney Tunes for their hosting of Hozier, for his latest album release. If you haven’t been to the store, it’s an incredible “step back in time” and you know the second you walked in there, why it’s been such a staple, for over 50 years, to some huge names in the industry. Security was professional, efficient and personable… not a whole lot more you could ask for. The ownership, staff and everyone involved there have a ton to be proud of. Thank you for letting me take part in the event. Here’s to another 52 years!

    Nothing I enjoy more than flipping through records at the record store. Always some good music in the background. This place is great.

  • 5/5 Ellen K. 1 year ago on Google
    Awesome as always. Been going there since forever, CDs, My beloved vinyl....if its not in stock, they will get it for you in a few days. Cool, knowledgeable staff. They promote local talent, host special guest appearances....a Long Island icon.

  • 5/5 Gerald R. 9 months ago on Google
    Great selection of new and used vinyl at very reasonable prices. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Easily among Long Island’s best record stores.

  • 5/5 Kelvin W. 1 year ago on Google
    Long running record store that continues to provide a solid selection of music as well as new and used movies, TV show box sets, shirts, books, and collectibles. Wonderful staff and special events.

  • 2/5 idk_avery 1 year ago on Google
    Came for the Waterparks in-store. The band was great and super sweet, but the store organization itself left most of the attendees less than thrilled. Instore aside, the store seemed overpriced in some areas but had a good selection. Now... The layout of the store means the tiny stage is perpendicular to the big rows of vinyls, so each row can fit about three people wide. Instead of filling the queued attendees in horizontally, they put us all in one section at a time, meaning those of us who were waiting outside for 7+ hours were in the back of a section while those who were several switchbacks (and hours) behind us in line were at the front when a new section was started. When people who were there longer asked if they could go to the less-filled section before more people came in, we were rudely told no and not given any more explanation. The meet and greet itself was super rushed. Maybe 30 seconds, and the staff was unpleasant during that too. Even the band seemed uncomfortable and caught off guard when THEY were in the middle of talking to people and people were getting yelled at to move on. They also did not let people have their phones out in the store? They said they'd take them from you. There was no real explanation why. You can't say it's because of time or because of your ReAl pRoFeSSioNal PhoTOgRapHeR... that's bullshi*t. It takes NO additional time or effort to let others in your group record your interaction from the side while the band and store does their thing. No one in that store was on the same page. For example, we were initially told we'd be getting our stuff signed. Then later that was changed. (But oh wait... they had no problem later putting up signed items for sale on their website with the purchase of more CDs/vinyls. That's gross.) They barely told people what was going on. Some employees were great... idk their names but big cashier dude with the long-ish white beard and the younger tall blond guy were nice and helpful.) The other guy (not sure about his name. he was older and had about shoulder-length hair) really rubbed us the wrong way and was rude and arrogant. He also had no qualms complaining and repeatedly making comments about the band being late, which is understandably frustrating on his end, but also unprofessional and makes things awkward. In the grand scheme of things, it didn't even start too much later than it was supposed to, so repeated digs as the event progressed were unwarranted. I'd give three stars due to still being excited and grateful to meet some of my favorite people, but the responses here from the owner to others who also expressed genuine concerns don't help their case and made me choose two stars. Just saying: - it's not quite a "free concert" when you have to buy the album, which I can get for way cheaper at Target or something, and then also pay an additional fee on top of that. The "free concert" wasn't that far off from the price of a ticket to their actual show. -300 people? Lmao I was told at the event there were about 200 wristbands sold because the fire marshal limits the building to 216 people. I love Parx, but after driving 3.5 hours to come here specifically even though there was a location closer to me, only for us attendees to be met with all this, I'm in no rush to attend another instore run by this place.

    visiting Loony Tunes is like remembering why I was so fortunate "coming of age" musically in the 1970s. Record stores were the norm then, and I could spend hours checking out new releases. We need to support Looney Tunes before it goes the way of hardware stores and delis/diners.

  • 5/5 Jenna P. 2 years ago on Google
    Looney Tunes is a Long Island gem! We took it for granted when we lived in Lindenhurst, but still make the trip for all things music now that we live in Huntington. The staff is knowledgeable and kind. Even in the era of streaming, the experience of browsing shelves where all of the best new releases and deals on used treasures can be found really can't be beat! If they don't have what you're looking for in store, they'll order it. Honestly, anyone who's a serious music fan should stop by once a month!

  • 4/5 Sha G. 2 years ago on Google
    I didn't get any online alerts or notifications. I drove out in rush hour traffic from BK for the MJB "meet and greet" that was cancelled on the foggiest night I ever experienced. They were literally about to close. Extensive collection of music. Hope MJB reschedules for a time and date I can make. Those of us with wristbands would appreciate it.

  • 3/5 Diana V. 2 years ago on Google
    Got my record finally after 6 months on 12/13. I’m changing to 3 stars from 1 because of the lack of kindness with how they talk to their customers. Update: 10pm I got a DM stating they are resending the record. Should this arrive I will edit my stars. Rude customer services that never answers emails. The screenshot below is from 12/10. Never received an order from them in which USPS tracking says they never received the item. Very turned off from how they responded to me reaching out to an artist saying I never got my item and radio silence from Looney Tunes. Kindness goes a long way. I was supposed to receive the item in August and didn’t leave this review until 12/10 when they were rude to me via Twitter.

  • 5/5 Pat D. 2 years ago on Google
    Had all of the css I was looking for and nice knick knacks as well got rid of 5 people on my Christmas list with this one store. Everyone loves music and for people who like CDs records box sets artwork t shirts go here if you like Spotify for it's convenientness you are making places like this die out.

  • 5/5 Alexander C. 2 years ago on Google
    Excellent selection and really friendly and helpful staff that clearly loves music. Support your local shops!

  • 5/5 Allister M. 5 years ago on Google
    What a fantastic shop! I could get lost in there for hours just going through all the vinyl. And they always put on awesome events with awesome artists. I hope to get to another event soon!

  • 5/5 Bill T. 1 year ago on Google
    I've been a customer for years. So nice having a local record store nearby. Always helpful. Something so calming as thumbing through the used albums.

  • 5/5 Francesco T. 2 years ago on Google
    I have been buying records here for well over a year and, even though not so close to me, it is, by far, my favorite place. Great selection of every genre both new and used and the staff couldn't be friendlier and more knowledgeable. Prices of new albums are great, a few records, which I will not mention, were considerably cheaper than at the big box stores. Looney Tunes is, by far, my reference record store.

  • 5/5 S R. 1 year ago on Google
    Great place. They're constantly getting new records/CDs in and will order any newer production stuff on request.

  • 5/5 Michael H. 2 years ago on Google
    Great store. Incredible selection. Knowledgeable cool helpful staff. Whether shopping for music or music related fun stuff this is the place to go. Support creators!!

  • 5/5 JASON J. 1 year ago on Google
    One of The BEST! Record Store's Ever...With Amazing History as well...& They sell Jason James cd's too. This is one Music Store not to be missed. Amazing Staff too.

  • 5/5 Diane P. 1 year ago on Google
    Wonderful, helpful staff. Like a treasure hunt looking through the LP's. We found some real gems.

  • 5/5 Steve S. 1 year ago on Google
    The best record, cd, and cool stuff store on Long Island. The place to find great music and accessories for yourself and gifts for friends and family. Let Karl and Jamie find anything you need. In-store band concerts are a regular feature and rare music items galore. Gift certificates always available. Looney Tunes has become a classic place to shop where music and fun...are one.

  • 5/5 Peter V. 1 year ago on Google
    Great selection of not only records but tees shirts and other related merchandise. I go a couple of times per month, well worth the trip!

  • 5/5 Jason V. 1 year ago on Google
    Great little music shop. Truly a gem! They have vinyls, cd’s, Knick knacks pertaining to music in all kinds of genres. They also host shows.

  • 5/5 Stevie R. 1 year ago on Google
    So glad this record store is still going strong! Great staff and a fantastic selection of all genres of music!

    Went here for the first time for the Busta Rhymes signing. The staff were very friendly and joking around. When he was running late, staff kept us updated on his time of arrival and let people stay in the store to avoid the 30 degree weather. It was a very organized event. Will come back again!

  • 5/5 MARK V. 9 months ago on Google • 1 review
    My favorite local record store. Friendly staff. Great selection of vinyl and cds. Lots of memorabilia and fun stuff to decorate your jacket or backpack. Very reasonable prices and did mention how kind and knowledgeable the staff are? If you’re looking for a fun place to shop for vinyl and things to decorate your room with? Take a trip to Looney Tunes Record Store located in West Babylon!
