Fine Records

(June 10, 2013) Tony May said:I remember Fine Records as one of those long, thin, rather old fashioned shops. Situated in Hove, I was not a frequent customer to the shop but do remember buying some sale Lp's in there a few times. One of the downfalls of the shop was that its owners were in the habit of putting the record sleeves out in the racks without the inclusion of stiff cardboard inside them and so a lot of the covers got tatty very quickly. I know nothing of the origins of the shop and probably last visited it in the late 80's/ early 90's ( I remember I bought a sale copy of 'Wild & Free' by The Dazz Band so it must have been open a few years after that record came out). My impression then was that the shop had been around a long time but had not moved with the times. I recall they had a large selection of Cassettes even then.
