Record Stores in Kentucky

Jet Age Records

Newport , Kentucky , United States

Address: 817 Monmouth St, Newport, KY 41071

Embracing the rich history of the area, Jet Age Records is a family run business, based in the heart of Newport’s Historic Monmouth Street. Founded by brothers Kevin, Mike, and Tom; Jet Age Records was born from their mutual love of music and poster art. The Jet Age Brothers had so much collected music and artwork, that it had slowly overtaken their homes. It became apparent that these extensive collections had outgrown their space, and they needed to be shared with the world! This is how Jet Age was created: from the love of music, art, and great coffee.

But the emphasis is always on our customers. We believe in giving the maximum value for every dollar you spend. It is our philosophy that if we offer great deals, people will keep coming back. It's been working well so far. Our philosophy on life is not dissimilar. Treat people as you would like to be treated and it will return to you many times.
