Melbourne Record shops - Collectors Corner and Off the Hip
December 29th 2006 07:34
Just a quick recommendation for record shops in Melbourne. Both are in the inner city.
The first is called Collectors' Corner. It has both CDs and records covering general genres, but I like it for its' soul and reggae sections. They have a number of good reggae LPs from sixties stuff to more contemporary sounds. A lot are reissues, but good sounds nonetheless. Their 45 section is pretty good too. Not a heap of stuff, but a good amount and they have a just arrived section for you Melbourne regulars.
The second shop has no reggae, but it if you like sixties garage, whether it be from the sixties or a contemporary version, then check out this shop. It is a really good space, which includes a back room where they have bands play every so often. Much respect to that.
I was in both today and made purchases - I'm proud to say I didn't indulge though, I only bought presents for other people.
Melbourne is a fine town and treating me well. Until tomorrow.
