The Record Pedlar
The Record Pedlar in Bury St Edmunds was exceptional.An unlikely rival to the Andy's Records mother ship on the same street. Mostly vinyl with a smattering of CDs I would pluck up the courage to go in when I was 16 and see if my selections would pass muster with the glitterariti behind the counter. I remember getting approval for Jacobs Mouse, Elvis and The Smiths and properly sneered at when I purchased The Soup Dragons and EMF. These guys were too cool for school and for a while I dreamed of working in such an establishment but knew I could never compete with these purveyors of taste. I took me a long time to get over the notion that social status was determined entirely by obscure music knowledge and appreciation. Comment; Bamber
