They still do, and 'kids' of all ages should be pleasantly surprised at just how many places in this city they can still buy records from. So this is our one-stop guide to the fantastic record shops of Greater Manchester, from the 'Vinyl Valley' that is Oldham Street in the Northern Quarter, to the windswept streets of Bolton, Lancashire. Browse the menu on the right hand side and go shopping!

I am, perhaps like yourself, a little tired of hearing stories of how record shops are dying and the only people buying tunes are middle aged male obsessives (perish the thought! -ed). It’s another great big shining lie and so, with camera in tow, RecordShopCity decided to hit a couple of our local stores and capture some cool customers, in flagrante so to speak, and give you a flavour of a typical Saturday afternoon out record shopping in the city. A big thank you to the lovely people who allowed me to capture their souls!
While I was out I also came across a great new stall in Afflecks Palace called ‘Good Grief!’ which stocks an interesting selection of limited run and esoteric records, so thats another one for our list. Check out the review here->
