Was this on Eccles New Road? Around the corner from Langworthy Road? - Your Uncle Harry owes me for the one pound voucher promised when I bought a new Monkees album. I received eight 2/6d vouchers (not to be used together). Or maybe Mickey Dolenz owes me. Anyway, I'm sure the guy in the shop looked more like Simon Dee.
BTW, I also remember Disc City on Cross Lane - window shopping only. See other people's photos.
My Dad's favourite place as a kid, he always harboured a passion to own a record shop himself as a result!! My parents met in the milk bar next door after my Mam had gone to Disc City with a friend and my Dad bought her a Vimto!!
Wow This brings back some wonderful memories, I bought my brother's last two 45disc records from the Disc City in the 60s great little record shop and atmosphere buzzing,And Louis Snack Bar hot vimto for sixpence,me and my mate's spent most many a time in there,Just feels like Yesterday
We had a record club at Broughton High School for Girls in the 60s. My friend Linda MacDonald and I would get off the bus there to buy the latest singles. So many fantastic memories.
It was Cross Lane - bought one of my first records from there Marty Wilde's Teenager in Love. We would walk down Cross Lane after going to the market.
we valued things much more then.
