Parrot Records

Parrot Records

Picture
Remember Parrot Records and it's various incarnations just round from the Buttermarket? The only place to stock "Relax" by Frankie (AND had the cover in the window) and staffed by people WHO KNEW ABOUT MUSIC.  Posey clothes shop, now. Shame. Comment: laneddie


(Apr 25, 2012) Dan said:There was also a branch of Parrot Records in Canterbury, Kent. Managed by an miserable old guy, rumour has it he was sent to Canterbury because it was far away from all the other branches!
