The Sheffield folk on here might like to know we finally have a record shop in the city centre again!
Vinyl Demand, on Rockingham Street... and it's a goodie, full of great old stuff. Went in the other day and bought four LPs - friendly guy, too.

Square Records - Wimborne Minster
A dying breed now these small shops, great service and also a selection of S/H albums too. Very good at sourcing what you want as well.

Some people have no idea what they're doing and a lot of them are really good at it.

Had a little trip to:
http://www.rubbersoulrecords.co.uk/
earlier today
Picked up:
Lloyd Cole & The Commotions - Rattlesnakes
Rainbow - Down to Earth
Joan Armatrading - Track Record
Ted Nugent - State of Shock
Pretenders - Pretenders
Dire Straits - Communique
Mica Paris - So Good
Earth Wind & Fire - All n' All
Pretenders - Learning to Crawl
Bad Company - Straight Shooter
Pat Travers - Go For What You Know
Doobie Brothers - Best Of
Pat Travers - Putting it Straight
Marvin Gaye - Midnight Love
Emmylou Harris - Quarter Moon in a Ten Cent Town
15 (Fifteen) albums for just fifteen of your English pounds - and most are good/perfect outer and inner sleeves as well. No serious scratches or groove damage (with what I've got through so far, anyway) and of course any crud just cleans up on the Moth.
Well happy
Current Lash Up:
TEAC VRDS 701T > Sony TAE1000ESD > Krell KSA50S > Troels Gravesen Faital 3WC-15.
Fine albums, those.Originally Posted by Macca
