One of the country's largest independent record stores turns 10 on Oct. 19.

Josey devotes two huge racks to exclusives each year, so if you're seeking a particular record, you have a good chance of finding it there.},{ "name":"Editor Picks", "component":"17105533", "insertPoint":"4", "requiredCountToDisplay":"1", "watchElement":".

It began as an earnest attempt to help perpetuate the legacy of connection and inspiration first felt by the generations of Dallas music lovers who frequented Bill’s over the years — its beloved proprietor Bill Wisenerat the age of 75. “Without a doubt, there would be no Josey Records without Bill’s Records,” Cameron says.

In 2013, the year before Josey Records opened its doors, vinyl record sales reached a 15-year high, selling a total of six million units in the U.S. alone. Sardello reaches into the pair’s past to explain the decision to open Josey: “Coming from Bill’s, I think we looked on that experience to help build what we’re building here. In its simplest form, we wanted people to feel how we felt the first time we went into Bill’s. We wanted people to come in and look around and be awestruck. And, you know, feel like they’re at home.”

Cameron puts it even more bluntly: “I distinctly remember Luke calling me, going, ‘Hey, if we are going to do this, now is the time.’” Attentiveness and appreciation for customers is a key component of the Josey Records experience. The flagship store, daunting in scale though it may be, has a method to its densely packed madness.

“We’re building that as we speak right now,” Cameron says of the Garland location. “We’ve got people over there hammering and knocking stuff down.”Once Garland opens its doors and Tulsa expands, what next? What does the next decade of Josey Records look like, particularly when standing back and considering the sizable achievements of its first decade?
