Loved it, I know most of you had formative stuff all around football, and we did and do love it, but our thing is and was always music. Taught me a lot. I bought plenty of bootleg LPs in X-Records, mostly of Concerts I had been to. I remember they had a KISS colored vinyl with a picture of some bird giving a blow job. I think it was a bootleg of a Concert in Milan. You could always get some decent stuff there. Also a place in the downstairs Market by the Arndale in Manchester. They always had Cassette Tapes from Concerts around the UK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I, I mean my friend, was a bit naughty with their Derby St store and borrowed 45’s on a regular basis. 🙄 The same thing happened at E P Lees shop on Newport St facing the Wheatsheaf where ,oddly, a lot of the early picture sleeve punk singles turned up & were "borrowed" . I didn't get one, but apparently a lot of the highly collectable ( & possibly valuable now ) original Buzzcocks' Spiral Scratch went there.......https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QoYiQ8Qsozk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
