Really great shop, sorely needed in the area. Great and varied selection in great condition. Good new section as well. Owner is extremely welcoming and helpful. Has an automated record cleaner which he's happy to use, will stick on any record you want to sample before buying. Great to pop in and browse for a few hours.

Awesome shop. Has an amazing atmosphere and record collection. Vinyls are ridiculously cheap for both their condition and age (cheaper than online). Owner is really helpful and kind and knows his shop off the back of his hand. Definitely will be going here frequently.

First time visiting the place yesterday. It's tiny but by God don't they fit a lot in that space! Everywhere you look and dig around, something of interest. Even managed to stock some My Morning Jacket albums, not seen those on vinyl until now!

I picked up a selection of classic Beatles, Who and Motown era records on 7" single 45s, Back In Black used and a few new ones I've wanted on record for ages including There Is Nothing Left To Lose and The Bends. There's even some freebies out the front you can help yourself to if you choose!

Simon the owner is a top bloke, very welcoming and attentive when you mention you're looking for something specific. I expect, knowing that a few of the older Beatles records would be well worn (they were) he gave me an eye-popping jaw-dropping discount, I mean it must have been 40-50% of what the regular prices would have been which is just stunning. Very much a man who takes care of music lovers, this one.

As it's about 10 miles down the road from where I live and stocks a great selection (I could easily have spent several hundred there, not just £100 including discount) I can see a lot of happy hours digging through the racks in future. Even struck up an interesting conversation to a chap named Phil or Pete about the merits of Golden Earring beyond their hit Radar Love, another album that's now on my radar to buy in future as I loved the album when it was playing in store - pun very much intended on that one.

Great place, real old school record shop vibe, as it should be. Customer for life here.

You all ways find the best things in the most unlikely places, Vinyl matters is one of those places.
If you love your music and love the crackling sound of vinyl then this is where you need to go.
Got my wedding song for my wife on our anniversary, it wasn't just sitting on the shelves, he had to hunt it down for me.
Week later I had it in my hands in really good condition...

Thank I will be back for more.

As this is the ONLY vinyl shop on P/field, I think it could B more value 4 money by being a lot cheaper to buy Albums & give U much better prices for UR old(er) records, serein as nowadays we have the choice of shoppin online 🤔🎼🎵👍👏

Well worth a look for recorded music fans as shop, although quite small in size, holds a large selection of second hand vinyl. There are also new albums stocked. Seems most genres are catered for and prices are comparable with many other record stores.
Owner is welcoming, knowledgeable and helpful. You could do a lot worse than pay Vinyl Matters a visit. I certainly will be back.

What a fine place for a dig! I could've spent all day in here if it weren't for my wife and son waiting outside and staring impatiently at me! A ridiculous amount of vinyl at reasonable prices. Highly recommended.
