Hi, I was planning on visiting London for a day in a couple of weeks time - mainly to see Wire(!), but while I'm there, I don't mind visiting some nice shops. Last time I was there was about three years ago - any new shops I should know about? Down here not all shops are open on sundays - how's London in that respect? Thanks!

I would say that at the moment the best place to visit in London is the new Smallfish shop in Shorditch (Old Street). The shop has one of the best selections of CD and Vinyl, and by all accounts this selection will be increasing considerably. The shop is also open 7 days a week, and until 8pm on weekdays. On top of all that they have really friendly service from some very clued up people... They also do mail order... Oh and with all the mails about Vertical Form I should also mention Atlas (as the guy who runs VF works there) down in Soho, they have a great selection also, but more vinyl based rather than CD (if thats your bag) end of advertisement... I think its time for Ernie's IDMFAQ (www.idmfaq.org) to have a section added about record shopping in (delete as appropriate) London/New York/Paris/etc..., as this question comes up quite regularly :) -- Dan --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
