'''Discount Records''' was an independent music store in Little Rock, Arkansas, located at the corner of Twelfth and Elm streets from 1972 to 1975, and beginning in 1975 at 3400 South University Avenue across the street from the [[UALR]] campus. The store operated a branch called Peaches Records and Tapes in the defunct [[Juroy Theatre]] on Pike Avenue in North Little Rock. Peaches showed films in the balcony of the theater on Friday and Saturday nights until moving to a shopping center at the intersection of McCain Boulevard and John F. Kennedy Boulevard. Peaches closed in 1995, and Discount Records the next year.

Both shops sold LPs and local concert tickets. The store's promotional tagline was "A better idea to get music to the people."

[[Jack Garner]] was the owner of Discount Records. In 1980, citing the establishment clause of the Constitution and due process, he sued the State of Arkansas to lift [[Sunday blue laws]] that prevented the store from selling records.
