Name: alexio Comment: The downstairs punk den in the Virgin shop in Nottingham was the scene of my first forays. The shop gained notoriety when it was prosecuted for displaying a Never Mind The Bollocks poster and was successfully defended by John Mortimer
Name: Rob Comment: The ground floor was for albums with headphone listening posts and you'd find singles in the basement. Downstairs was the place to be in the 1977 punk years, the guys behind the counter would play you anything you wanted. I vividly remember the day of the Sex Pistols' God Save The Queen release where it and the b-side were played non-stop. (16 May 2013)
