If you are in a car...you could always nip along the A14 and see Glen Bellamy in Kettering ( as long as he knows your coming.)
It s not a soul wilderness...just that these guys dont sell from shops anymore as there is no real sense in having a commercial property to maintain.
Jacko sells odd bits on ebay as does Max! Mick Godfrey has a warehouse but is only really selling strange bouncy music nowadays. Glen does record fairs and stalls at soul do s but mostly sells from lists and the net.
Up until about three years ago, I could spend all day in Cambridge buying records from Steve J in Andy s ( and drinking expensive coffee) now I just bother him in the flat and drink tea.
If you plan it well you could still get a vinyl fix.
