The Age Cheap Eats 2008 "Audiophiles take note: the vintage amps and turntables of this former music store are long gone"

The Age Michael Harden, 8-10-2007 "Sitting in a surprisingly large space a flight of stairs above Collins Street, Recorded Music Salon has been open for a few months as a daytime cafe. ... From the generously proportioned seats on the chairs and barstools - designed by the owners and built by a local furniture maker - to the kind lighting and the chilled-out friendliness of the service, this is a bar that immediately feels like a good place to hang out."

The Age Clem Bastow, 4-10-2007 "Opening a few months back, the Recorded Music Salon is a long and lean room with a gorgeous wide window offering views of the most Paris-ish visage of the Paris end of Collins Street. During the day the skeletal plain trees mope against the vintage architecture, and at night the tram stop and the street lights wash the facades with a warm glow. The long-and-lean theme extends through the seating arrangements and the bar with a stretched central table surrounded by stools pointing at the bar, which takes over the marathon and runs the rest of the length of the room."
