This guy is one to best places to head for that really rare LP you
can't find (especially European). He's expensive, certainly, but has
the largest stock (and catalogues) of rare and wonderful vinyl I've
come across. Covers all rock from the mid-60s on, but with a slight
emphasis on psych and prog. He also does catalogues of CD issues.

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.

The RecRec label has lots of quirky European releases like
Fred Frith, Bruniferd, Nimal and so on. They run a respectable
shop front and, from the same address, a mail order service.
Obviously they have all the RecRec releases in stock, but they have
a generally good selection. Their catalogue is not free. It's
a paperback about an inch thick and full of amusing opinions.
They are probably only amusing if you can read German.

Label/business set up by central RIO musician/composer Chris
Cutler in 1978 that's still going strong. The RéR label covers a
huge diversity of musics from all over the world. What the label
covers and what the mail-order side stocks is decided purely on
Cutler's perception of musical merit. It therefore doesn't "carry
labels" as such. Issues a catalogue with frequent updates. There
is a lot of obscure and fantastic music in the RéR catalogue
... highly recommended that you take a look at it.

My mail order business was formed with the aim of promoting
and distributing international progressive, psychedelic, and
similar recording artists in Australia for the lowest possible
price. Undertake promotion, distribution etc. of music in addition
to maintaining a mail order catalogue.
