Street Corner’s jazz and R&B interests give the Oak Park leg a clear musical purpose. Its current shop on Greenfield buys and sells records and CDs, with blues, rock and other genres around that centre of gravity. The business began in Beverly Hills, Michigan, in 1993 before moving here, so older addresses still need a second look. This is the place in the route for someone whose list runs from a soul LP to a jazz CD. Keep the format in the conversation; the same recording can turn up in several editions with very different appeal.
What you will find
Vinyl and CDs across jazz, soul, R&B, blues and rock, with used collections feeding the selection. The store also identifies Motown among its musical interests.
Genre strengths: Jazz, Soul, R&B, Blues, Rock

Local tips
For a collection enquiry, separate LPs from CDs and describe the main artists or genres. A useful inventory is a better starting point than the number of boxes.
