I found this in the official matchday magazine of Southend United Football Club dated Friday 29th February 1980: “The records played at today's match are supplied by J. R. Records and Tapes.”
A-Z prev: JR Records
A-Z next: Jubilee Market
Name: Quercusrobur
Comment: JR tapes on Sutton Road was a little shop that sprang up near St Mary's Church where I bought my very first LP with my paper round money, Relayer by Yes.
Name: Grant Philpott
Comment: Best purchase from JR- Ashes to Ashes 7" single (should have bought all four covers, they were only about 85p each!) Worst (in hindsight)- Jim Davidson Live cassette- a present for my grandad. Whoever worked there in 1978-81 liked playing Dr Hook.
Name: John Taylor
Comment: About 40 years ago, before moving to Denmark to be a DJ I worked in a small record shop on Sutton Road, Southend on Sea called JR Tapes. To complete my pension application here in Denmark I have to supply information on the places I worked in the UK. As much as I remember JR tapes was on Sutton Road, I cannot remember the number of the shop. Long shot, but can anybody help?
