Name: Liz Nelson Comment: The kids today miss out on so much... The excitement of going into somewhere like Musicore, listening to the latest single from your favourite band, then walking out with that single... a physical thing in your hand... rushing home and carefully putting it on that turntable... oh, what a rush! Now - download an invisible MP3 alone in their room. Sad really.

I found this advert in the 'Newcastle Evening Chronicle' dated 25th October 1971: “musicore is TOP SHOP - Records, Tapes and Accessories at 1 BRIDGE HOUSE, NORTH ROAD, DURHAM – musicore.”
