I found this advert on page 50 of 'Music Week' dated April 7, 1979:
“The T.V. Advertised album 'Kinetic Energy' CAN 002 can be obtained from: S. Gold & Sons Ltd., One Stop, Projection Records and Ecstasy Records.”

I bought a fair number of LPs from this shop.

On London Road - you went down a few steps to get inside. Mainly focused on Progressive stuff (pre-punk) but you could get anything there. I remember buying a Neil Young LP or two. When you were a regular they would offer a discount but it was very informal.

They had something to do with the Chelmsford Punk Festival which, as I understand it, lost a lot of money. I was into bands like the Stranglers, Clash by this time but none of the bands showing at Chelmsford Football ground so I did not attend. I might have left Chelmsford by then anyway. When the Festival failed they moved shop from London Road to Rainsford Road, between the Pavilion Cinema, which is long gone, and the County Hotel. I went into the shop, when I visited Chelmsford but it never seemed busy and then the shop was gone. I would also guess that Parrot Records took their customers.
