Nottingham
I funded the project as I’m not only a fan of music, but also of independent record shops. I find it sad that people feel the need to steal music nowadays, or worse, buy it from Tescos. Aside from a few second hand record stores, there isn’t a decent record store in Nottingham anymore. With that, the city hasn’t just lost a place to discover great new music, but also a place where like-minded souls could find refuge, whilst taking side-ways glances at what the other customers were buying.
The first and last records I bought:
First: Oasis – (What’s The Story) Morning Glory – I believe I bought it from Woolworths in Victoria Centre with a token I received for my birthday in 1995.
Last: Warpaint – The Fool – I purchased the lovely gatefold double vinyl from the Rough Trade website last week. Almost 15 years to the date of buying my first record.
