About Criminal Records

As Michael Jackson might agree, many a good thing was started by a boy with a dream. As is the case with Criminal Records. Eric Levin was just 19 when he opened Secret Service Records in Daytona, Florida. Everything was running swell, until the Man sent him a cease and desist ordering him not to use the name "Secret Service." Faced with the decision to change the name or be a criminal, Eric chose both hence Criminal Records. Eventually Criminal Records found itself in the heart of Atlanta’s Little Five Points neighborhood, where it has been for more than a decade.

The real story though is how Criminal has become one of the top independent record stores in the country by offering customers a terrific selection of CDs, comics, vinyl, DVDs, toys, magazines, and more.

Criminal Records is located in Little 5 Points in a building that looks like Bootsy Collins’ UFO crash-landed into it. We are open M-F 10 AM - 9 PM; Saturday 10 AM - 10 PM; and Sunday 12 - 7 PM.
