“New and second-hand records, good vibes and stuff”. More info coming soon!
All Night Flight
All Night Flight Records is located just off the main market place in Stockport which is now home to some new bars, eateries and some really interesting little shops emerging as Stockport tries to reinvent itself from a poorly planned 1970s town centre struggling to compete with what I’ll politely call “changing […]
SK1 Records
This is an excellent little shop combined with a Cafe and is well worth your attention. Take a 10 min train ride from relatively booming Manchester to Stockport you’ll see evidence all around of how big towns and cities around the country are struggling to cope with the huge change in retail shopping habits shifting […]
Tasty Records
Like most smaller towns, Altrincham has seen record shops come and go. Older readers will recall it had a Virgin Records in the town centre, a branch of Omega Records, Double Four and several others. More recently, Beatnik, Honey Bee and Soda have come and gone all too quickly – all victims not of the […]
High Street Books and Records
Don’t let the shop sign fool you…this fine little bookshop also has an absolute gem of a Record Shop in it’s basement. Down the white stone steps you’ll find a wall full of music related books, and beyond that a well stock room full of Vinyl and CD. Most of the stock is second hand […]
Music for the Soul
If you’ve exhausted your regular haunts it’s time to look further afield. Urmston (birthplace Herman’s Hermits Peter Noone no less) is easily reached from Manchester by train and just down the road from the station you’ll find two shops in one. ‘Music for the Soul’ also incorporates ‘Dave’s Rare CDs’. Vinyl may be the hip […]
Convoy Records
Tucked away in Lady Hayes Craft centre in Frodsham, Convoy isn’t the easiest Record Shop to reach but well worth the visit. There’s lots of interesting stuff at the Lady Hayes Centre and it’s in a nice location so you can make a bit of a day of it – you might even spot […]
Discgotech
Discgotech sells Comic Books and Movie related collectibles, Star Wars figures and the like but you may be interested to learn they also sell 2nd hand Vinyl, ranging from Indie to Reggae and especially Punk. They also offer a CD/DVD repair service so if, like me, you believed it when Tomorrow’s World on the BBC […]
The Musical Box

Skeleton Records
Skeleton Records has a long history, opened by John Weaver in 1971 – and described as a patchouli scented Head shop that specialised in rare imports , underground press and hippy paraphernalia. The name of the shop was apparently taken from a Syd Barrett song – If It’s in You (“Skeleton Kissed a Steel Rail”). […]
