Ah, I look forward to your review of this one. I pass it all the time but have never gone in. You just can’t beat that record shop on the ground floor/brothel upstairs combo!
I was in the area today and stopped intending to have a nosey. Alas, the place is boarded/shuttered up with a long-abandoned air about it, and the gentleman in the corner shop next door gave me to understand that it has been so for some considerable time. (The “executive health salon” above looks equally derelict, though I made no specific enquiries, being a respectably married man and all that !). Maybe this will save someone a wasted trip.
Discovery Records is open. been open 20 + years. walk past every day. A odd shop with some vinyl gems if you can find them amongst the /:??? . Best asking in my opinion. saves digging in the odd crates.
Discovery Records is
*OPEN* *OPEN* *OPEN*
OK OK OK!!!
How much more closed can this place be? Short of driving a dozen JCBs through it the answer is none. The sign is half gone, the shop front decayed, the windows boarded up, this shop has expired and moved on to a better place. Not hard if you’re in Gorton I know.
