our record selection

Rainy Day Records is an independent record & video store located in downtown Olympia, Washington.

We carry all forms of popular music — rock, pop, jazz, blues, soul/R&B, hip hop, electronic, country, folk, classical, international/world — as well as a varied selection of 60’s & 70’s psyche/‘out-there’ sounds, classic reissues, compilations, and box sets, on both CD and LP. We can order almost anything that we don’t have in-store, for no additional cost.

Our store features the largest selection of new LPs in Olympia — new releases, reissues, and compilations.

We buy, sell, and trade used CDs and LPs.

In addition to the music itself, we carry the accessories you need to enjoy it — we have CD cases, cleaning wipes, and a selection of headphones to choose from. For vinyl lovers, we stock portable, DJ, home-use, and USB turntables, needles and cartridges, record cleaning kits, slipmats, and LP sleeves. We also sell refurbished, used turntables and stereo equipment.

In the back of our store is our skateboard counter, where we stock decks, trucks, wheels, grip tape, tools, bearings, and helmets.

If you’re in need of a good film, visit our video section. We specialize in DVD rentals, and keep a small selection of films for purchase.
