Rocking Chair Records becomes a music hot spot in St. Augustine

With vinyl record sales surpassing $1 billion the U.S. in 2025, David Smart, the owner and proprietor of Rocking Chair Records , is settling in quite comfortably on 74 Masters Drive. Rocking Chair Records, which opened in May 2025, has become a hot spot for music lovers, collectors and newcomers enticed by the idea of collecting vinyl. Undaunted by a generation raised on streaming music, Smart told the St. Augustine Record that the appeal for playing “physical” music is not just getting stronger, it’s growing in leaps and bounds. “People are rediscovering what gets lost when music becomes just another app on your phone,” he said. "A record spins on the table. It forces you to listen to the whole thing. It really does make you sit with it a little bit more and appreciate the artist." Smart underscored how records reach beyond music, pointing to the “artwork, the liner notes and overall experience” of owning a tangible item that produces sound. "Holding a record, smelling the paper, seeing the ink colors on the paper, pulling the record out of the sleeve and reading the labels and the lyrics are experiences that you can't re-create with your phone," he said.

The Baked Beans At This Old-School Florida BBQ Joint Are Almost As Famous As The Meat

The baked beans here get a jolt from datil peppers, a sweet and fiery local chile most people outside this corner of Florida have never tasted. That alone made me sit up. The peppers don’t stop at the beans. They show up in the cornbread, the slaw, the corn, the sausage, and even the barbecue sauce. I like how one tiny pepper ties the whole menu together.
