I found this quote on a Facebook page:
"Dave Seaman: I spent so much time in Wide-A-Wake Records in Garforth, Leeds, other customers started to think I worked there!"

My very first purchase was in this shop. 1970s. It was always busy and the owner was larger than life. Mant hours spent there flipping through hunders of 75 and 25s.
