Name your fav local independent record shops!

[Dynamics]

A cd and record shop in brightons north laines called 'resident'. They expanded to double the size of the shop because so many people are buying vinyl again.

But they are a great shop and HMV in Churchill square has shut down, but HMV is a terrible music shop for finding eclectic music.

In resident you can always get recommended something decent and they have all the great and best music from all the genres. In some ways I know CDs are doomed but I really hope it doesn't ever come to not being able to walk into a shop like resident and buy music, even if it's a electronic card or download card with the artists name and album on it.

Renew in York, a bit like the That's Entertainment chain, didn't have long as our parking was running out but CDs at£2 each or 3 for £5, I bought 2 Gomez CDs, one a double album and the second album by fine young cannibals, all near mint

[Vinyl turner]

There are several in York that I trawl through;

Rebound on Gilleygate
Ear Worm records in a yard off Goodramgate (next to The Snickleway Inn)
Vinyl Eddie on the Tadcaster/Leeds road out of York

All of these have a good selection and knowledge of what you may be looking for.

If possible I will buy from independents such as these places rather than off ebay, mainly because I like to inspect the vinyl before buying.
