"Great little shop"
Here you're more likely to find a genuine obscurity or the unfamiliar and at a reasonable price. The 'usual' music genres, fair depth of stock (noticeably in Psych & Prog), with a high incidence of 'clean' items. Spacious and informal with
Lots of new and used records and books. Raritys and collectibles. Also you can get a coffee and I think a beer there. I have in the past anyway. Dr Alex of the Orb sometimes broadcasts a set from there. It's a bit of a hub for WNBC radio.
Visited earlier this year and a few times subsequently. Unfortunately, I will not be returning. The selection of records are good, yet curiously expensive. There is no way to listen to records that catch one's eye and the older gentlemen
Although it is what it says it is (a book and record shop)I had a wonderful evening of live music in this cute and quirky shop. It was the first of a monthly session of music, Great organisers, beautiful people, the owner is a wonderful
Great little shop. Some good finds for older records and a small selection of new records. The guys are super friendly and are often doing a radio show when I visit (which is cool). You can have a coffee as well which is nice.
Best record shop in London with regular events of the highest calibre. Immensely knowledgeable staff who will always take time to chat to you. Radio station WNBC transmits from the shop a couple of days a week.
Hell of a place - huge variety of vinyl and books, all curated by the expert, benevolent owner. And a 2022 update - been to a few live events and they are ALSO great. This store is an absolute treasure.
Excellent selection of vinyl and books. If you can't find it ask Michael and he can dig it out for you. Great coffee as you dig. The soul nights and live bands are an extra touch. Best shop in London.
Fantastic record shop. Packed full of great albums and at really good prices. Very nicely organised and easy to access all the records. Michael the owner is also very friendly and knowledgeable.
Digger's delight!!! This record and book shop is crammed floor to ceiling with treasure and undiscovered gems.. Be prepared to search through the huge amount of stock and you will
What a gem! Visited here earlier today and was amazed by the selection of records to hand and even the choice of books. So great to have places like this around, enjoyed that.
Lovely shop and lovely owner. I also recommend a better flow of air in the place. All windows always shut and no ventilation at all. I couldn’t stay longer as I wanted so.
Wonderful book shop/ music venue with some amazing artists lined up for concerts. Very friendly atmosphere and good times all around. Highly recommended.
Very nice shop with lots of vinyl to discover. Also South London Vinyl Experience @slvegroup did a live session there which was fantastic
Great selection of vinyl and friendly knowledgeable staff. And it has a toilet if you like me enjoy record shopping on a few pints lol
Music Books Art, Coffee. What more could you want ? A real gem of a shop, run by friendly knowledgeable people.
very friendly service, bargains found, discovered great music upon my visit through the live dj. unique place.
No listening stations? in a shop this size with this much second hand vinyl this seems like a no brainer???
Great venue with fantastic intimate gigs. Nice selection of drinks to loosen you up.
Well worth a visit. Great selection and friendly staff.
