Record stores in the UK - Looking for recommendations.

Hopefully in the not too distant future, we can all get back out there and crate dig again. I'm looking to expand my list of record stores to visit, which I can often fit in around my business travel. I travel all over the UK with the exception of London, so please send me your recommendations. I've a very eclectic music taste and collect a mixture of old and new vinyl.

 

Monorail in Glasgow

 

There’s a listing here that should help you get started...#TimsTwitterListeningParty. Independent Record Shop List

 

Brilliant, thanks a lot!

 

I found countless grails in Unknown Pleasures in Edinburgh.
But it permanently closed due to COVID.
I’m afraid many stores have suffered the same fate.

 

Plastic Wax and Wanted records in Bristol, both are close to other shops as well to make any visit more rewarding.

 

Swordfish in Birmingham. Though if they’re still in business with/after the pandemic I don’t know

My wife just cameback from Leeds Bradford and the records stores she visited the records were overpriced

 

This is a great place.
