This small off piste shop on the suburban margins concedes little to fad, genre or quality grading.
An intriguing hodgepodge of mostly second-hand vinyl with a relatively high incidence of 'tired' stock.
No pricing on items.
Notwithstanding the lax scrutiny, both the persevering 'vinyl anorak' and the casual browser are likely to find something here.. eventually.

My favorite record shop. Small but packed with good stuff thats not overpriced. You even get a free mug if tea once you have been there a few times.

I been to the shop twice and picked up some barraging you will have to ask for the prices for albums and singles but the two pounds box is full of hidden gems worth a look come highly recommended.

The staff provide a friendly and efficient service. If you are selling LPs you must be realistic in your expectations of what they are worth.

For my musical tastes this is the best record store in London. The small store houses an extensive inventory spanning most genres but particularly good for all things rock (from early rock n' roll through to millenial post-rock).

Better yet all of the stock is in good condition at very reasonable prices; overseen by an atypically friendly proprietor!

While the stores somewhat limited opening hours, and out of the way location (Palmer's Green) it is well worth the effort. Especially for vinyl hunters who can't find what they're looking for online.

Good place with nice record selection. It's a shame the records are not priced in advance. I had the feeling the prices depend on the owner's mood.

Plenty of vinyl to be had if your prepsred to search. Very untidy and dirty, smells damp. However chap was pleasant and prices not too bad, although I think most prices are made up on the spot.
