Ray Limon and Stanley Swinger between them have more than two decades in records, and have run High-Fidelity on West Adams Boulevard since 2019. It is a small room of new and used vinyl, memorabilia and stereo equipment, and it sits deliberately in West Adams, which was one of the centres of Black Los Angeles and of the city's jazz life long before the freeway went through it. The shop buys, sells and trades, and functions as much as a place to talk as a place to shop
