cocco Posted September 8, 2012 Posted September 8, 2012 I am in your fine city. Are there any good music shops nearish the bull ring? Quote
Jigster Posted September 8, 2012 Posted September 8, 2012 Fair Deal Music - opposite New Street station - probs not the best tho - Guitar Guitar and PMT are bus/car/15 min walk away Quote
BILL POSTERS Posted September 8, 2012 Posted September 8, 2012 I dont get back there much, nearest I think is Fairdeal, on Smallbrook Queensway, more or less opposite the entrance to New St Station. PMT is within walking distance, 10 minutes walk. Junction of Lawley St and Curzon St. Quote
spinynorman Posted September 8, 2012 Posted September 8, 2012 If you like old vinyl [url="https://maps.google.co.uk/maps?hl=en&ie=UTF-8&q=the+diskery+birmingham&fb=1&gl=uk&hq=the+diskery&hnear=0x4870942d1b417173:0xca81fef0aeee7998,Birmingham,+West+Midlands&cid=0,0,16333753230514475680&ei=rkdLUO3hBo2r0AXa4IDQDA&sqi=2&ved=0CH8Q_BIwAw"]The Diskery[/url] is worth a bit of a trek onto Bristol Road/Bromsgrove Street. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VhQVBxvkwwU Quote
BILL POSTERS Posted September 8, 2012 Posted September 8, 2012 (edited) Nearly forgot. Theres also City Music. in the railway arches near the junction of Livery St and Gt Charles St. not huge, but worth a look. Also +10 for The Diskery, especially if your a jazzer, bit of a Birmingham institution that, been around forever and a really nice guy. Theres a good little second hand Vynil shop in Temple St as well. Cant remember what its called, but just down the hill from Maplins. Edited September 8, 2012 by BILL POSTERS Quote
spinynorman Posted September 8, 2012 Posted September 8, 2012 Is that Swordfish? Most of the small shops in the centre seem to have gone. Reddingtons is only online, and has the worst website you can imagine. http://www.reddingtonsrarerecords.co.uk/ Quote

seashell Posted September 8, 2012 Posted September 8, 2012 Another vote for the diskery. If you're into vinyl you won't be able to stop yourself buying loads! Quote

Diskery is the opposite direction and I don't have a record player so it doesn't seem worth the trek. Quote
the_skezz Posted September 9, 2012 Posted September 9, 2012 +1 for Diskery and PMT, both brilliant shops. Quote
