Dave Harrison Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 To any of you well travelled guys......... I'm off to Tokyo next week, and wonder if anyone can point me in the direction of any good record shops to browse? I have been many times before, and have found the odd few, so I'm not expecting to pick up any bargains! Just somewhere to kill a few hours on a Saturday afternoon! I'm staying in the Ikebukuro area, and can recommend the ZAPP bar, where they have stacks of soul LP's (mainly 70's & 80's) and good bar food at a reasonable price! Any info would be welcome Cheers Dave Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

adamt Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 the Disk Union chain is pretty good, they're a chain and have shops in many areas, with Shinjuku and Shibuya being the best, but all their shops are split into sub-shops so make sure to look out for the soul/funk/r'n'b ones. Near the Disk Union in Shibuya there is a big building (opposite Tokyo Hands and just up the same road as Disk Union) which has about 5 record shops which sell a variety of soul/funk/r'n'b/reggae/ska plus in that general area there are quite a lot of soul record shops.

Dave Harrison Posted June 8, 2011 Author Share Posted June 8, 2011 Cheers for that. I've had a look at his web-site and there's definitely more than I've ever found. I'll get in touch! Thanks Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Dave Harrison Posted June 8, 2011 Author Share Posted June 8, 2011 Again, thanks Adam. I'll have a look for the Disc Union shops. It's easy to get around Tokyo, but not always easy to find a particular shop as you know! All the best Dave Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
