AUSTIN (KXAN) -- Waterloo Records got remastered and threw a huge party for its re-release.

The famous record shop, which for decades sat at the corner of West Sixth Street and North Lamar Boulevard, finally lowered the needle on its new location Saturday; the soundtrack a mashup of excited shoppers, intermittent announcements about prizes and giveaways, and, of course, music.

Waterloo's grand re-opening party marked the culmination of months of collaboration and planning among former majority owner John T. Kunz and new co-owners and operators Caren Kelleher and Trey Watson. • Waterloo Records celebrates grand re-opening at new storefront, 1105 N.
