Tone Deaf Records is an independent record store located in the lovely Portage Park neighborhood of Chicago. We carry new and used records, CD's, shirts, record cleaning kits, and other fun stuff for the vinyl junkie. We specialize in punk, metal, jazz, soul, indie, classic rock and a ton of other musical genres. We have been open since June of 2019 and look forward to your visit. Drop in and say hi when you are in the hood!

Black Friday releases can all be purchased from here: Black Friday

If you have any records you would like to sell for cash or store credit, you can bring them by the shop or give us a call to setup a house call. 

Black Friday Update!!

Black Friday releases can all be purcahsed from here: Black Friday

Sooooooo. We have been mulling it over this last week and with Covid numbers just getting worse and worse (and it wont get better with Turkey Day tomorrow) we have decided that we are going to do Black Friday completely online this Friday. We dont feel good about people lining up in front of the shop and also have to consider the health of our employees (all two of them!). So please read the fine print below before you head to the list of records.

We will be posting all of available releases this Friday 11/27 at 10:00am. It is a first come first served scenario so dont snooze as stuff will probably go quick. There will be a link on the website that will take you to all the releases and you can gobble them all up and do a quick and easy checkout from the site. You can choose to have them delivered, curbside pickup or have us throw them in the mail. Delivery fees are $3.00. We will only be selling Black Friday releases to local folks (pretty much within 10 or so miles of the shop) on Friday. We will cancel any orders that do not honor this. Any left over releases will be available to anyone for purchase the next day. 

We apologize that we have to do it this way, it is not ideal and also not fun for us as we love to see everyone. We are optimistic things will turn around in 2021 and hope the next RSD and Black Fridays will be "back to normal". 

So, on with the list!!!
