Hi All,
Mark here, from Record Peddler. The shop stayed open until 1992, I then spent three years doing record fairs around the UK and Europe, eventually selling the stock to the guy who took over at Swan Street and opened a guitar shop.
I kept some stuff and still have a lot of Factory label collectables and other bits and bobs.
It's great to hear that the shop is still remembered fondly by customers. In those pre- social media days, I never did get the chance to say thank you to everyone who supported the shop over the years, so I'll do it now... 'Thank you' to each and every one of you.

I remember THE RECORD PEDDLER fairly well. I was still at school (14-15) and I first went in about 1980 and bought records. I remember not much about it apart from it being long and there was a Tom Petty poster, I think 🤔
What I most definitely recall is buying Mayflower punk gig tickets that looked like old style raffle tickets. I do most definitely remember the guys running the place being really friendly.
Another world altogether and glad I experienced it.
