Two New Additions to the Collection

Today I went for a record shop in my local town after being back from a three month internship at One Little Indian records. I found to my delight first pressings of both Leonard Cohen's Songs of Love and Hate and Songs from a New Room. I also found tones of other stuff I really liked but my pockets weren't simply deep enough to purchase the goods.

After three months of living in London I had little success of finding any record store that could offer me decent vinyl that wasn't new. Pure Groove and the Rough Trade stores are great for new stuff, Sister Ray I never found anything I wanted, and the vinyl exchanges simply consisted of overpriced tat (with gradings fair to VG.)

There has to be a lot of great records bouncing around London but I simply couldn't find them.

Consequently, it leaves me to say that I would love to hear from anyone who can provide me with an insight into decent vintage record stores in London.
