Reviews
Found by pure luck met Alan really nice guy so don't know that other review was about. Started to collect audio cassettes great selection will revisit blackpool just to go back great shop
Great place to buy vinyl, CD and cassettes from. Covers all genre's however specialising in 70's/80's music. Well worth a visit to Topping Street as it's on the up as part of the regeneration. Parking available nearby and good pubs/cafes open too, to make an afternoon of your visit. Rick (owner) knows his stuff and very helpful in locating what you're after. My go-to for vinyl.
Went there for the first time the other day. Great neat and tidy and well labelled shop. Many formats covered, right down to tapes and vhs. Great prices and plenty of room to move. A recommeded visit
Good store lots of amazingly cheap cds and lots of vinyl. Descent guy running the shop as well
Really poor experience with the owner. Very rude with verbal insults.
