Here's an Island Records catalogue I picked up in Hades in the early seventies.

Downstairs it had these booth type listening areas where you asked them to play you an LP!! by Friedbreed » Fri Jul 18, 2014 8:55 pm
Paul Kerr 'In Bath Street, in the next block along from McCormicks, was a “progressive”record shop called Hades (previously mentioned). The decor consisted of oranges and purples and the guy behind the counter looked like he could have played in a rock band.
For Glasgow, this seemed very bold and It couldn’t have been more different from the
traditional McCormicks along the road. It had a ground level section and a basement and
as you walked down the stairs, you were watched by an enormous poster of Rory Gallagher.'
