[peel] HMV - some great pics

Should also apply to online shopping - often you can buy stuff without using the tax dodging second longest river in the world direct from the label...and they stock vinyl. My particular favourite : http://www.soundsoftheuniverse.com/browse/?l=27&s=1 They have some classic roots reggae from teh 70s on vinyl at the moment...
