Flyright Records
(Mar 30, 2012) Tony May said:Having spoken to the owner of 'Second Spin' in Bexhill, Phillip Barrie, who took over the old Flywright premises in all likelihood the shop closed in 1984/5. Philip told me that Second Spin opened for business in Bexhill in 1985 so it must have been either this year or the previous I would say. Not sure why the shop failed as it always seemed busy whenever I was in there and Second Spin is still going today so it was nothing to do with the location. flag like

Wish I'd bought that 12" actually because it was the only copy I've ever seen! Prince wasn't a big deal then. Picked up the original 12" of Wham Rap in the shop I remember that. Second Spin took over the premises shortly after Flyright Closed and is still in existence today (2012).
