  1. Trax on Wax looks amazing and brings back so many memories of great record shops.

    I have mentioned this before but I live in an area of the UK called County Durham. As a teenager I think I had access to at least 11 record shops. They are all gone now. First the tiny independent shops went but what really did the damage was the demise of the chains. I relied on their departments and even they used to put a varied stock out. Considering we have a university town a few miles away not having a store in the entire county is staggering. I still cannot get my head around seeing CD's in a supermarket next to the canned goods; and even then their is not much to choose from.

    Some of my happiest memories is wondering as a teen with my mates from record shop to shop looking to see what they had and coming home on a bus excited to listen to the new vinyl I had purchased.

     

    On a side note how on earth did the label's not keep control of their assets (the music itself). The new distribution methods seems to dominate the labels. I am possible too old to understand the new digital world but it seemed catch the industry totally off guard.

     

     

  2. Thank you for posting these wonderful images; oddly melancholic in some of them . Never seen a Range rover with such an unusual paintjob on it.

    Any idea where the stage shots are from.
