Name: Kirky Comment: I remember it very well... I started DJing in 1989 and used to buy all my records from there. Before it was behind the Sheaf market it was under one of the shops on Commercial Street near Barclays bank and now the bloke that owned it (Chris I think, tatooed head) has a stall in Chrystal Peaks... well he did up to a couple of years ago.
Name: Andy the DJ Comment: Yep, I remember Chantry Records, I bought a lot of music from there, it was on Commercial Street, he had all DJ business cards around the top of the walls, even mine.
Because of the amount I spent I always got a good discount off freebies-promo copies. It was partly run by Richard Marshall if I can remember right, who ran the Winds of Change disco, although I'm having second thoughts and it may have been run by the guy who ran Winds of Change disco. After that Chantry Records moved to Middlewood road and changed its name to Hillsborough Records. Sadly that's now gone. (20 January 2008)
