I got most of mine from upstairs in Boots , and the shop on the bridge (next to Picture House)Boots used to sell records too.
As is Smiths to me. Neither of them seem to serve a real purpose anymoreBack when Boots had more than just two thousand slightly different shampoos.
They sold records, electronics, housewares, garden supplies and equipment, photography goods, home brew, etc.
It's a 'dead shop' to me now.
Terry Blood.I'm sure there was a record shop in the old Sheridan centre, somewhere near Tandys.
Aaah yes , remember going there as well.Our Price was where O2 shop is now, i think. I'm sure there was a record shop in the old Sheridan centre, somewhere near Tandys.
WHSmith also had vinyl and cassetes upstairs where the Post Office is now.
I still use my old 80s Technics turntable which has served me very well over the years.Wouldn't mind listening to one of my LP's on this (Top Cashback have 7% extra) - can't really afford it though.
Anyone tried Sonos?

We have a Sonos system (albeit not a turntable) set up in the garage and it's very good in my opinion.
I’ve been trying to remember the name of that place. Not sure if it was Jackie’s. We used to go in during school lunch break in late sixties. I remember it as mostly records downstairs & instruments upstairs. It was opposite Motorcycle Mecca.And, was there a "Jackie's Records" in Mill Street? Possibly upstairs, over a downstairs that sold musical instruments?
Resales had various locations. I still have a good few things I had from him.I’ve been trying to remember the name of that place. Not sure if it was Jackie’s.

Resales on Eastgate St/South Walls junction opposite the long gone pub used to sell secondhand records too.
Is there a Collectable Records online shop somewhere (ebay, Discogs)? That website is a bit old-fashioned, and I keep getting a message telling me my browser doesn't support frames when I try and look at what's in stock.
