Slipped Disc Records (which went out of business in 2008) was a record store located in Valley Stream, New York, on Rockaway Avenue - owned/operated by Mr. Mike Schutzman - and was one of Long Island's longest running record stores. Specializing in heavy metal, punk, and hardcore CDs, records, DVDs, shirts, posters, pins, books, and other accessories, the store had also featured in-store autograph signing sessions with some of rock's biggest acts over the years. Recently, the store was featured in the documentary Get Thrashed, and an official website was launched for online shopping. Sip This (a chic coffee house) is now located where Slipped Disc Records used to be.
Famous quotes containing the words slipped, disc and/or records:
“He slipped his hand and ran away!
He hadn’t gone a yard when—Bang!
With open jaws, a lion sprang,
And hungrily began to eat
The boy: beginning at his feet.”
—Hilaire Belloc (1870–1953)
“This is D.J., Disc Jockey to American turning off. Vietnam, hot dam.”
—Norman Mailer (b. 1923)
“Although crowds gathered once if she but showed her face,
And even old men’s eyes grew dim, this hand alone,
Like some last courtier at a gypsy camping-place
Babbling of fallen majesty, records what’s gone.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
