(October 30. 2015) Great shop! Friends and I would make a regular pilgrimage from Reading. I remember buying The Allman Brothers - Idlewild South album (amongst many others) there. Also went to the Eagles gig at the Poly in '73. Comment: Steve Mags.

Many happy times spent browsing (pls note, Amazon !) the latest LPs in mid 70's. Also used to be a cool clothes shop in the same street - flares etc !
Thanx for all the memories (wish I'd kept my Sunshine bags).
