There were no record shop chains in Scotland in the 1960s so every record shop was an independent.

fatfreddie wrote:Sorry if this has been covered already but I can remember two record shops at Kelvinbridge in the early 70s, just past Otago Street, one roughly where the 24 hr supermarket is now and the other just across the road.
The name of one of them I think was Lawrence & Lang, and they also sold TVs & radios too.
The reason I remember them was it was there that I bought my first ever record.
Chirpy chirpy cheep cheep, by Middle of the Road if you really want to know....I would have been about six at the time.

Oh, yes.
Again and again. And again. And almost certainly again. And probably again, too.
Read the whole thread. And then have a search on the site for Listen.
