Hopefully there are some swiss on RA... I'm heading to Geneva on the 8th for a business trip, never been to Europe before so it should be nice. Anyone know any good record shops that are worth checking out?

You may be able to contact these guys:

Not sure if they have any store in Geneva.... worth a shot. I've ordered stuff from them, and I'm in Calif!!

There is only one physical shop left in Geneva, its named "Addis Shop". Check it here... http://www.addis.ch/shop/index.php?

Asher's "Raspect Shop" and "Regga Fever" are now closed... Reggae Fever is nowadays only in Zurich.

Rastaman; I live in GVA; There is really only one store where you can find vinyl that is used, including reggae, some "rare": it's on rue de la Servette, think its called Stigmat; Owner is not super cool, and prices often stupid. But once in a while he gets price right, i.e good deal for buyer. The funniest purchase was OG ISRAEL VIBRATION SAME SONG DUB which I got for...20 USD.... was my second copy; I sold for a ridiculously high amount on ebay, to buy more reggae stuff in return.

forgot; these guys are GVA based: http://www.culturalwarriors.ch/

they 're cool; they produce great stuff; buy anything on thir label. perhaps they have a store.

Cultural Warrior: respect from VLAD

Vlad, what is the name of the first shop you talk about...? thx

Greetings !

Vlad talk about ''Stigmate Records'' (3, rue de la Servette) 5 minutes from railwaystation, it's a good shop to get original press indeed, but prices are high. ''Addis Shop'' is about 30 minutes from railwaystation, but prices are more decent, so get there if you're looking for good oldies repress and fresh stuff...

Nice!

My hotel is right at the railway station so these two shops should be easy to find. Much appreciation for all the information, I'll definitely put those shops to good use.

A swiss topic.

The reggae fever shop in Zurich is now closed, there is a shop in Wald, a small village.

As greg said it before you have stigmate, it's more a rock & afro sound shop but he has a few original press. The only problem is that these original presses are ofen at home and have to wait a few day.... The guy has some big links for original press for soul, afro sound, rock & roll and sometimes reggae. If you are more than one day in geneva just ask him...

For cultural warrior, never heard about a shop.

have a nice time in geneva

PS: And if you are still in switzerland the 13th, you are welcome to our reggae dance.

much thanks noah, I wish I could make it but I'm heading back to New York on the 13th.
