spent hours hanging out as it was cool - and buying records esp 12" singles
Yes, remember it well and worked there in the 1990
I worked there for quite a few years
Yes I bought a load of Elvis Costello CDs at the guy behind the counter was also an Elvis Costello fan
The opening events were great, even if the bands were pure pop music. I remember seeing David grant, galaxy and Paul young. Can’t remember who else played.
I bought a Glastonbury ticket from there in the early 90s. Great shop. Good to see some real goths at the door there

"HMV was situated in Swan Lane where the doll's hospital used to be and where Lakeland now is, I remember buying XTC and Bluenote Jazz LPs in there. Paul Young did a signing of No Parlez in there in the early 80s, there was a good poster and t shirt section in there, I remember I wore a Frankie Goes To Hollywood t-shirt, bought from there, in Red Square in Moscow a few years later, it had Lenin on the front and it didn't go down well with the guards around the Kremlin whilst I was on holiday with my family."
