Wants & Wanted

A mixture of cheap and cheerful records and new releases from selected artists. Records are sourced in the UK from Old Spitalfields Market, Notting Hill and other shops. The owner's specialist interest in 78's, Punk and Reggae keeps the conversation lively and up tempo. We regularly buy & sell vinyl at auctions of all styles from the Lake District to the South Coast - we hold a large amount of vinyl as stock, but tend to turn this over every 3 months - we are specially known for weekly supplies of updated 2 second hand vinyl which has queues when we ever open! Albums are sold from 25p but customers are warned these are sold by the end of every weekend they come into the shop, this is a deliberate policy to change stock 7 inch 45’s come in all the time from personal collections - we are known for best prices being paid - end of every quarter as they are sent off to our ‘partnered’ record shop in Barcelona, which adds to our international experience We stock ‘new releases’ but only ones we like. Recently this included a lovely signed edition of Graham Coxon’s new vinyl & comic-book for soundtrack for Superstate film. This came directly from USA by personal order - at last research we were the only record shop in the UK to have such copies! Well situated on a roundabout, which is the main entrance to Cheltenham from the M5 (Junction) opposite the Norwood Arms pub. It is a pleasant environment for the whole family experience in one of the country's most special of spa towns. If you are making or planning to make a long journey, PLEASE CALL before. We don't want anyone to have a wasted journey and whilst twitter is great for updates and short notice alerts, a call would ensure all is OK.

Our record shop was established in 2008 from out of an MBA course at

Gloucestershire University and based in Cheltenham Spa.

We offer Specialist vinyl, both new and 2nd hand, for sale and exchange. The

Record shop is modelled on the classic Portabello Road - Notting Hill vinyl

collectors dream retail outlet.

“There is plenty to keep you busy on Bath Road, whether that is shopping in one of the

numerous independent shops like the brilliant The Record Shop, the perfect spot for all

your vinyl music needs.”
