Jena Haffner, along with her dad, Jean, own and operate The Record Exchange, the longtime, iconic record store in St. Louis. Jean opened the store in 1977 so Jena was born into the world of music and vinyl and now she helps Jean operate the 10,000-square-foot store filled with not just vinyl but all types of media, media-playing equipment, and memorabilia. If you haven't been down to the store, what are you even doing?! Make sure you swing by to dig through crates, find that highly-sought after collectors' item or that obscure, deep cut, and support one of the best record stores in town! And if digging isn't your thing, they have a huge online store so go record shopping from your couch!
