Reviews
Barry absolutely loves his music and will search for your wants. He also has a remarkable memory. Back in January 2020 well before the Coronavirus lockdown I asked if he had a Randy & the Rainbows 45 and a Paris Sisters 45. Just prior to the second lockdown in November 2020 I visited again, he remembered me and produced the 2 45s. I was well impressed! Barry's prices are very reasonable and he loves to chat music. An absolute treasure trove of a shop.
I spent 2 hours looking through with my friends and managed to pick out a good hand full of cds. Staff are very helpful and have good + eccentric music taste. Will definitely try to go more regularly.
Great to meet Barry. Super shop and excellent service.
Quite the most amazing crate dig experience. Wonderfully eccentric owner with an equally eccentric stock.
Tried to find this place, only found a homeless chap doing drugs in a doorway. Either my map is wildly uncalibrated, I'm a moron, the place needs better signage, or its closed down. Editing to add following owner reply: Store information definitely needs to be updated to not list as open on Google. I went out of my way to visit this store during my few hours in the city. Seems fair to rate it accordingly. I'm sorry to hear you've closed down.
