With thanks to Record Shop City reader Mike (who also provides the pictures) writes: “This lovely couple (Dave and Margaret) have been going since 1983 in Hyde buying and selling records at great prices. There’s a big collection of 50p albums and a good selection of £1 and £2.50 items and then some dearer stuff. Always friendly to help and chat about music, a great gem of a record shop….”
Moving further afield into Greater Manchester, Tameside we thought was the only GM borough that didn’t have at least one place to buy music, however it turns out we were wrong!
Music and Movies Exchange operate out of a small unit in the Clarendon shopping centre in Hyde. The shop has been trading for 18 years buying and selling CDs, games and DVDs. Our man in Hyde, Tony, tells us he was a DJ for over 25 years (he has our sympathies!) loves his music and he’s now decided to add second hand Vinyl LPs and 45 to the shelves, and his collection is building up day by day and by the looks of things very reasonably priced so you want to make Hyde a stop on your next record buying spree.
