Premier Vinyl LPs is operated by Richard (Rich) Thomas Thompson and serves as a resource for purchasing, locating and trading fine quality vinyl records. Record albums are available for purchase online or at record shows and expos, in and around, Michigan and Ohio.

Rich Thompson has been an actively passionate listener, buyer, trader and seller of vinyl records for over 40 years. His father, Tommy (Be-Bop) Thompson, was a Music and Coin Operator of TORA in Columbus, Ohio. Rich was constantly surrounded by music in the form of jukeboxes, 45s and pinball machines, and visited the shop daily to listen to music from his father’s record library. Rich was given his first record player at age 3 with vinyl like Paul Anka’s “Diana” and “Puppy Love” and Connie Francis’ “Lipstick on you Collar.” Rich owned his first jukebox in Kindergarten. He graduated to ‘The Beatles’ in elementary school, was drawn to Brazilian Jazz and Classical music in college, and most recently, enjoys grooving to Garage Rock and R&B.

Rich has a vast knowledge about and quick eye to recognize 45 and LP labels and first pressings. He participates in many Record Shows/Fairs/Expos in Michigan and Ohio and sells select records online at Music121*2007
