- In our NYC VINYL RECORDS: GREENWICH VILLAGE RECORD SHOP STRUGGLING w/ @Urbanist: Exploring Cities we walk with RUclipsr Ariel Viera around Greenwich Village to visit many small mom-and-pop businesses which are struggling to survive during the Coronavirus pandemic. In this Part I of our tour, we visit an independently-owned #vinyl record shop, which has been in the neighborhood for close to 30 years. We speak with the owner of Village Revival Records, Jamal Jararah about his historic #NYC shop and the difficulties he has faced due to #Coronavirus.
Village Revival Records: 197 Bleecker Street New York, NY (near 6th Ave)

About JamesandKarla:
Hey everyone! We are husband-and-wife architectural/interior photographers based in NYC. We started our video channel to act an artistic intervention to help raise awareness of the importance of small independently-owned businesses and the unique character these shops add to the streets and neighborhoods of New York City.
In our videos we will showcase portraits of storefronts and shop owners in New York City & beyond and capture moments of city life that capture the spirit, energy and cultural diversity of individual neighborhoods. We also bring our dog, Hudson along whenever we can.
We made it our mission to thoroughly document unique 'mom-and-pop' stores when we began to notice the alarming rate at which they were disappearing. Our critically acclaimed books include “STORE FRONT: The Disappearing Face of New York”, “New York Nights”, “STORE FRONT II- A History Preserved” and “Broken Windows-Graffiti NYC”.
Come see the city & subscribe to our channel :)

So important that you chronicle this type of stuff. I worked for Metropolitan Music Company “goofering “ for violin makers( getting coffee and sweeping and learning) I’d run over to Matty Umanovs guitar store and show him my lastest attempt at a musical instrument! Never forget it; There’s not a straight line anywhere! Back to the woods shop. On my way home , I would passCBGB’s and The Mudd Club. Let people know the rich history before it disappears. I think Mandolin Brothers on Staten Island closed. Every rock star shopped there! The record guy does know a lot of stars
Jamal is the man. I've been a customer since my 20s. I'm almost 50 now..lol. I miss chilling at the shop.
We are glad you already discovered this vinyl gem! What are some of your favorite finds that you have purchased from Jamal over the years? We hope you can visit again in the future as we are sure that Jamal will remember you.
Keep the music flowing!!! Your passion is impressive. It makes all the difference.
Thank you so much Zazu Zazz for the wonderful feedback. We are so glad you found our video and enjoyed watching and also could see the passion and enthusiasm we have fir these small businesses
Jamal is the man! I used to go to Bleeker bobs, Rebel Rebel & Village Music all in one spree day. I miss those walks, but this video reminds me to get back out there
Yes Jamal is so knowledgeable and a kind person. Hitting all those three places in one day must have been lethal on your wallet. We have visited and photographed both Rebel Rebel and Bleecker Bobs and miss them.
Amazing dog🤗
Thank you so much Flower Kisses for the love! Hudson our doggie 🐶 sends big kisses to you!
Thanks so much🤗 I think Hudson is the best doggie 🐶ever🤗
Haha cool , I watched the live stream of this , wonderful to see everyone promoting the small shops , best wishes to you and everyone xoxo
Thank you so much Monica for watching not only Ariel’s livestream but our video too! We always try to incorporate visits to the many wonderful small independently owned businesses that make each neighborhood unique into each of our videos. Happy holidays to you and hope you also enjoy watching some of our other videos.
Wow! Now this is a really cool record store and the owner seems to really appreciate artists...so very cool. It's incredible he gave his collection to the ARChive for recorded music...what a great guy!..You should visit ARC it's an incredible place with an incredible mission!
Ok, it´s official! I need you to tell Jamal I love him!
I feel so related to him and his passion and enthusiasm. He exudes that humble attitude I love in real vinyl collectors (I don´t like those 'I know everything' attitude of other record store owners).
We have to help our local record stores! THESE KIND OF PLACES JUST CAN´T (SHOULDN´T) DISAPPEAR! We can´t lose people like Jamal. We´ll be dumber, less passionate, intellectually weaker if these kind of places just fade away.
If you don´t have a turntable, get one (there are really inexpensive models you can start with...even for poor people like us in Argentina). Once you put the needle on the record something just changes inside of you...it´s like a calling. You get more curious, you want to learn more about music, artists, culture, places, historic moments. And, if your are lucky enough, you can get to know people like Jamal (or Kristian from Limited to One, or the guys from A1 or Academy Records, Human Head or Blue Sun in Brooklyn). You can plan your next trip like me: looking for record stores to visit in a city you don´t know. Cause as soon as you enter a Record Store you are
surrounded by people just like you and if you are a nice person you´ll know nice people wherever you are.
So, thanks James, Karla, @Urbanist, Hudson (of course) for showing this part of the New York I love and treasure. Tell Jamal that, as soon as Mr. Covid lets me travel, I´ll be the first in line to get some good stuff from his store and to tell him 'thank you' for what he´s doing.
Stay safe, healthy, strong and put some vinyl on, just to the tell the world we are spinning too...no matter what!
Greetings and love from Argentina!
We knew you would enjoy this video and had hoped it was also one of the places you had visited in 2019. Jamal certainly is both very knowledgeable about music and vinyl and is also a wonderful person who really cares about his store and it’s relationship to the community of Greenwich Village. Thank you so much for watching and commenting as always and looking forward to a brighter 2021 and hopefully a not so distant future that you can return to visit our beloved city.
@@JamesandKarla I missed Jamal´s sotre! I had it on my list but we didn´t have the time to go. I´ll be ther next time, you can be sure (I put my eye on some of his stuff...I had to freeze the image to see his collection better and I´m shocked, I can´t believe what he has in that tiny office).
I hope you can join us then, it´ll be a wonderful time to share with friends like you. Pizza is on us! (Did you hear that, Hudson?).
Karla, applause from the cyber bleechers! -Really delighted now when I see you and James posting.
Karen,
Thank you so much for the kind words of support. We really appreciate the love.
@@JamesandKarla Pleasure.
@@karenstanislaw8912 🙏🙏
There is nothing better than hearing the record player needle hitting the record with a bit of static, then the music begins !!! ❇️🥀🌸🐻😉🌺🤶🎆❇️🥀
We couldn’t agree more and are glad you enjoyed watching our video. This vinyl shop is certainly a treasure of the Village and we hope you can visit it in the future.
Oh goodness! You’re still there. I bought the copy of the White Album called The Black Album years ago. I mean I stold it. Not literally but it’s quite the conversation piece today. Later it was marketed as “the lost tapes “, I think. My brother and I spent hours rummaging for rare discs for his dj business
We are glad our photo brought back good memories of spending hours at this shop and finding some real gems! Please share our video with anyone else (like your brother) who you may think will enjoy watching it. Thank you so much for watching and commenting.
I was there a couple days ago they have a beautiful selection
That is so cool that you already have visited this wonderful shop. Thank you so much for watching and commenting and hope you also enjoy watching some of our other videos including many highlighting vinyl record shops!
I enjoyed the visit to Village Revival Records! Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much Nick for the continued love and support. It is an amazing record store and definitely a must visit when you travel to NYC in the future!

Thank you so much Sock Friction for the love!
Is Bleecker Bob's still around?
Sadly it closed a number of years ago. We have a photo of it when it was open on our Instagram feed if you scroll down and also on our Jamesandkarlamurray.com website!
@@JamesandKarla aw man, that was my hangout spot when u was a young guy in my late teens and early twenties. We'd go and listen to Black Sabbath or Cannibal Corpse it whatever else they had. The Village ain't the Village I grew up hangin out in. Such is the nature of progress.
Hi
Hi Diane B! We hope you enjoyed our video! Happy holidays
@@JamesandKarla I love your videos I look forward to them all the time. You and James have a remarkable energy and love for your city I hope you keep this up you’re doing great. Love you guys
