Noriega Records

This cozy record store is hidden off of the 91 freeway, which offers a nice alternative to rat hole records in riverside. This location has a decent selection of harder to find pressings available.

Mike and Andrew Noriega are running one of the best record stores in California. Truth is that Noriega Records may be one of the better stores for funk/soul/hip-hop in the nation. Mike definitely knows his soul and funk records. He spun many exceptionally rare soul tracks while I was in the store. I remember him playing some early George Clinton 45s.I dug through the majority of his store out of morbid curiosity. To say the least, Noriega records has a very impressive inventory. Mike and Andrew manage to stock sought after vinyl in all genres. Mike and Andrew definitely know how to provide anyone who drops by with highly desirable vinyl. Odds are that Mike has a record to fit most any customer's interest.Anyone looking for a properly owned and operated record store should seek out Noriega Records. The inventory alone is worth the trip.

This little hidden gem in Corona is a must visit for vinyl hobbyists. It’s located on sixth street just off Lincoln ave. I finally made it here after popping out to a record store in riverside most of the time. I’m surprised I didn’t visit sooner. The selection here is smaller than some other stores, but it makes up for size in its quality. Lots of great records in excellent shape. Plenty of 45s and everything is priced and labeled making it easy to browse. Prices are very reasonable - other shops in the IE vary widely in their pricing and conditions.Store owner and son are nice and helpful. I highly recommend you visit and check out their selection. I live nearby in Corona so I’ll definitely return!

Drove down here from Long Beach, took about an hour. I arrived on Saturday at 535PM and it was closed.

The Man is GREAT.He was very kind.I would go back
