Frankie Crocker Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 Very droll Ian. Personally, I find the more time I spend in record stores, the more sociable I become, even asking the owner politely for a chair so the missus can sit down and relax for five hours. I draw the line at growing a beard to appear dysfunctional as being mistaken for a Jazz fan is unfunny. Actually, I'm getting fed up of all these 'vinyl sales up' stories and those Christmas present suggestion articles featuring Crosley briefcases. On a positive note though, any demand for record players and vinyl accessories can only be good for us serious collectors. 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Gold Band Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 The thought of wearing a beard to go shopping doesn't seem to bode well with me, but as monty python once said my names Brian too. Anyway my husband may not like it or would he All the Best KIRSTY !!!!!!! Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Liamgp Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Does beg the question: where do the producers of all those bloody 'reissues' get their stuff pressed if all the plants are 'locked down' by the majors? Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Jordirip Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Record shops have always been the home of the socially inept male, but never quite in the same league as those dungeons and dragons type of model shops where all manner of strangeness seems to go on. Anyway, I thought it was a flaying offence to read the Guardian in here. 2 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Dave Well I'm not actually with any company at this point in time, so nothing to measure.

Frankie Crocker Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 Articles in today's Telegraph and Times about the resurgence of vinyl but in a serious tone. Makes you wonder what might happen to the prices of rare soul records once the world wakes up to what it's been missing. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

I used to spend every Saturday trawling every record shop in the Midlands, I chatted to all the socially inept males you speak of and scared most of them half to death haha 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Thanks for confirming… not mainstream, not part of the herd... definitely a threat to the stereotypical alpha males (Northern Soul or otherwise) in particular. 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
