[Derek Pearson]

Anybody out there got any memories of an old record store on Earl Grey Street in Edinburgh called Waverley's?

Jeffreys was a curtain and fabrics store for some strange reason had a couple of boxes of pressings on the counter.

Played football with Geof many moons ago,but never got round to asking him why they sold records in a curtain shop.

Waverley was a record label,rather than a shop.

You are correct but this was after the move from the Bread Street record shop (now a hairdressers).

The above shop was a haven for rarer records and they could get you almost anything (British) to order, i.e. records not in the charts, I bought many 45s here like this, it then moved to the curtain shop in Lothian Road it did indeed have a record counter which was weird!
