Record stores in A Coruña

Record shops reward the patient digger. A Coruña, Galicia has 3 mapped right now. That's 3 record shops mapped around A Coruña. Every shop grades and prices differently, so the same record can be a bargain in one and a splurge in another — dig everywhere. Check the grading before you pay — a visual grade and a play grade are two different things.

This guide covers every record store we could verify in and around A Coruña (within about 40 km), built from OpenStreetMap's community-maintained data. Names you'll run into include La Galleta Music Shop and Midimaster Música, plus Musical Cienfuegos. If a record shop's missing from A Coruña's list, it probably just hasn't been mapped yet.

Record digging tips for A Coruña

A few things worth knowing before you work through A Coruña's record stores:

• Hit the new-arrivals bin first at La Galleta Music Shop. That's where fresh stock lands before anyone else sees it. The good stuff rarely survives the week.
• Handle records properly in the shop at Midimaster Música. By the edges, never the grooves. Shops notice, and so do the records.
• The listening station is the test. If a record looks questionable, play the loud passages. That's where surface noise shows up.
• Ask the staff what's new. Shop staff know what's just come in and what's about to. One question can save an hour of digging.

Good to know

We searched about 40 km around A Coruña — that covers the town itself plus the surrounding communities you'd reasonably drive to. Listings come from OpenStreetMap, mapped by local volunteers, so a brand-new record store in A Coruña can take a while to appear. If you spot one of the 3 that's closed, or a great record store we missed, the fix is to update the map itself — that's where this guide reads from.

We don't list prices or stock — both change by the day. What we list is the where: real shops, verified by real mappers.

If you run one of the 3 listed here and something's wrong — a closure, a move, new hours — the fix is the same: update the shop on OpenStreetMap and the correction flows through to this page on the next daily refresh.
