Not actually visited this outlet but I have had things bought for
me from there. Said things were quite obscure and had hand-written
stickers giving details of genre and links to other artists which
impressed. Knowledgeable and well-priced with a good catalogue.

Second Sounds - purveyors of all things cosmic/trip/prog - and -
second-hand! Good selection of Hawkwind/Ozrics/Gong/Yes etc, on good,
old-fashioned vinyl! Give us a ring to see what's in!

I have been buying CDs from them since 1989, I have never ever
been disappointed. The store is owned by Keith Howe, but its
the mail-order manager, Alan Beecroft with whom I have mostly
dealt with. What he doesn't know about progressive music isn't
worth knowing. He is extremely helpful, and is very friendly on
the phone. They keep a huge stock of CDs from the 60, 70s and 80s
and well as current titles. They also produce a catalogue from
time to time. The last major one was in two parts totalling 124
pages, and I have recently received a spring 1995 supplement of 42
pages. Excellent stuff. Track advertise in the UKs monthly Record
Collector magazine. They accept credit cards, and once on file,
just order, a swift check on your details and the goods are sent.
They also sell videos, cassettes, vinyl and keep a number of
specialist magazines
Decidedly average outlet. Reasonable amount of Cantebury related
material and not a great deal else of note. No RIO, zeuhl (one
second hand Magma *Live*) to speak of. Rather conservative.

Excellent mail-order store. Their shop is supposedly good. They
have a very large inventory of indeed and are very knowledegable
about progressive music. Particularly the German and electronic
music. International mail order. Quite expensive though, even
for the UK. They have odd opening hours.
