About:

Thirty Years ago, two Goth and New Wave audiophiles started infamous little store in the heart of Denver with a label under the name Wax Trax Records.

Now, they were into all the music from every new niche: trendy stuff from England and Europe, all the mainstream titles, and all the vintage records we could find. Denver Wax Trax Records were selling Elvis bootlegs to old women with blue hair and bowling shoes, Dead Boys albums to guys with spiked hair and dog collars, and Eagles records to kids from the suburbs. Then the ’80s hit, and they weren’t selling songs anymore: theywere selling identities. Music was even more vital, more exciting and important.

If a musician invented it, Wax Trax Records probably carry it. And if don’t, they will find it. They have thousands of titles from classic jazz to desert rock. They specialize in vintage, vinyl and obscure 45s. So come in and browse by title or artist, and, for those really tough to find items.
