I found an article about Cleveland’s record shop in the 30th June 1986 edition of the Hull Daily Mail:
Hessle Road business closing down – Cleveland’s record shop, run by brothers James and Joe Cleveland. The original shop just across the road was opened around 1930 by their father and mother. Business prospered and led to a second shop in Holderness Road. That closed last year. “We lived through one decline when radio came along and hit record sales” said James. “Today you can buy records in all the big stores and we just can’t compete, what with the decline in sales and the decline of Hessle Road itself.”
