“My teenage years in record shop bags: Roxcene, Newport - hair-metal a speciality, top floor of the Kingsway next door to the sex shop.” Craig Austin

Had a delve into one of my memory boxes and dug out a load of record bags from my youth.
From Cardiff I have Spillers, Buffalo Records, Sound Advice and those orange Virgin. I also have a paper Virgin 7" bag with the Rocket Ranger cartoon on it.
From Penarth I have In Sounds and one of those Woolies bags with the musicians on it with the legend "Woolworths For Top Records".
From Newport Roxcene Records.
From Yeovil Acorn Records.
There's a Parrot Records too which advertises shops in Southend, Chelmsford, Ipswich, Colchester, Braintree & Sudbury.
I even have a paper 12" Spillers bag which has little records all over it and advertises Spillers in Cardiff and Newport.
