Join Our Mailing List!!!

I typically send out a mailer every week or so with an itemized listing of my latest finds. This goes out before the website is updated. If you'd like to join the email list and get first crack at my new arrivals, simply send a message to rockaroundrecords@gmail.com to be added. If you have a "want list" or a specific record you are looking for, please email me so I could be on the lookout. I take pride in tracking down those hard to find pieces and will contact you as soon as I do!

Welcome To Rockaround Records!!!

My name is Mike Hooker and I am a record collector, music enthusiast, and reseller. Rockaround Records is my web-based store that I operate out of Austin, TX, specializing in used punk, power pop, new wave, hardcore, glam, metal, indie, alternative, classic rock, garage, psychedelic, prog, and more. I go on buying trips on a regular basis to seek out the highest quality used vinyl records from all corners of the United States. I've built a solid reputation by offering a diverse selection, accurate grading, fair prices, and most importantly, stellar customer service. Please see what some of my customers have said on Yelp.

I Buy Records!!!

I am always on the lookout for quality used vinyl LPs and 45s. There are a lot of different genres I'm searching for, primarily being punk, power pop, new wave, glam, metal, indie, alternative, classic rock, garage, psych, and prog. I'm also interested in 50's r&b, 60's soul and girl group, roots blues, and select eras of jazz. For a better idea of specific artists and titles I’m searching for, please select the Want List tab above.

If you have a substantial amount of records that you are ready to sell, please contact me to discuss. I know the values and trends of the records I seek, and I will pay a fair percentage of going-rate to take them all off your hands. I can make house calls most any day of the week around Austin, and will travel almost anywhere else in the US if you've got the record collection I'm looking for. I pay cash on the spot and am always fair. The most important thing to me when buying a record collection is that we have a mutually beneficial transaction.
