When we think of healthy living, it obviously reminds us of… ourselves! So maybe we don’t eat as much kale salad as we should, but we sure aspire to. It is for this reason that we are so pleased to have our records and turntables on the shelves of a handful of Whole Body at Whole Foods Markets across California and in Brooklyn! Our goal has always been to spread love for vinyl records far and wide, and we are so pleased that Whole Foods shares the same passion. After all, ears, brains, and souls need TLC too, and the best way we know to keep them happy and healthy is by putting a needle to the groove.
Check out our wares in El Segundo, Fairfax, Oxnard, Pasadena, Santa Barbara, Tempe, Tustin, Venice and West Hollywood, as well as Brooklyn’s new Gowanus market/bar/restaurant/hangout/record store/bike repair/coffee shop — yes, really. We hope that the program will expand to additional cities in the future, so next time you’re getting your quinoa & wheatgrass fix, be sure to mention to the clerk that you’d love to see some vinyl in the aisles.

Third Man Records in select Whole Foods Markets
It wouldn’t be Third Man if there was ever an announcement that wasn’t met with furious complaining.
To coin a phrase… ‘Wole Foods TMR Turntable Starter Kits’ are nothing short of brilliant…. nazi punks need to fuck off if that want to keep the love all to themselves when it comes to good music and crosleys … gotta expedite all those platters and keep the short orders in the works
OMG. I just read some of the comments. I am going to be hospitalized for chronic eyeroll one day. Well, they are nothing if not consistent. Here’s to never meeting in person judgey macjudgersons and judges of judgetown.
Now the place can fully realize it’s nickname as ‘WHOLE PAYCHECK’!
Too cool dood
Ya’ll crazy.
Not exactly….
On this side, you’ve got your people who are bothered that other people are bothered by something Third Man has done. And on the other side, you’ve got your people who are bothered that they can’t convince the people who aren’t bothered by this thing Third Man has done to be bothered by it. Who wants some popcorn? I ain’t telling, though, whether I bought the butter at Whole Foods or a local mom’n’pop organic market. ‘cause either answer would be likely to bother someone. (In all seriousness, though, it’s pretty terrific that these conversations take place, even if people sometimes get offended. Gotta churn up the milk to get good butter, y’know.)
Because there is only one ‘correct’ answer or perspective…..
I’m just glad to finally know who to ask the next time I want to know anything about Third Man Records.
