Cath Jones
(April 26, 2015) I lived in Sandbach till I went to University in 1958 and bought my first records in Cath Jones' shop - 78s by Humphrey Lyttleton and Louis Armstrong! It was a single storey wooden building - lots of sheet music as well as records. I don't remember the "fancy goods." There was another record shop in Sandbach, on High Street, round about 1956 or 1957, but it didn't last very long - I don't have the vaguest idea what it was called. Comment: Ray Astbury
(August 30, 2015) According to the website sandbachwhatson.weebly.com Cath Jones converted her father’s cabinet making shop in Congleton Road into a record shop. It opened in August 1947 and it closed for the last time on the 29 February 2000 exactly 18 months after Cath Jones died. Comment: Ray Astbury
Richard Lees "Have many fond memories from the 60's, of browsing the records while my parents went to the market. Cath always made me welcome (even though I had little money to spend!), and I still have many of the records I did buy." (April 15, 2015).
