The History of Stanley’s Records

Thomas Stanley is a Columbus, Ohio record collector, reseller, DJ, and traveling record show host. Stanley’s Records doesn’t have one singular place we call home or set up shop—the local breweries that host our vinyl record shows are where we call home. He hosts several vinyl record shows at breweries around Columbus, including BrewDog in Canal Winchester, the Crooked Can in Hilliard, the Little Grand in Grandview, and Ohio Brewing in downtown Columbus. Thomas, AKA DJ Big Soul, is also a DJ and spins vinyl for private and public events, weddings, vintage markets, and more. Although he does not have a physical store, you can shop thousands of records and CD’s on his Discogs page, or contact him with a list of records you’re looking for.
