I'm going to London on Friday, been a few times before but never to look for records. Are there any good ones that people know of?

thanks.

    Camden markets maybe, cental London doesnt seem to have anything special going on in it. The markets would be a good guess though, especially if you like vinyl

    Berwick Street off Tottenham Court Road has a couple of vinyl shops, Sister Ray is there and I got Riot Act for a reasonable price.

    There was, not sure if it's still there, one is Notting Hill called Music and Video Exchange and I got the alive single in there.

    Anyway, here's a link to some others.

    Portobello Road has a few really good ones. You need to go to 'Notting Hill Gate' tube stattion and follow the crowds - or ask someone.
