LOVE NZ RECORD STORE HISTORY? Check this...
If you love your NZ history, and you especially love history that involves record stores... here is an article for you... even has a wee mention of Dave's old Auckland record store 'Corner Records'...
Comprehensive, great pics and a walk down memory lane if you ever trawled through crates in the AK...
TRAWLING THROUGH THE CRATES - LOST RECORD STORES OF INNER AUCKLAND - Article by Simon Grigg
To add to that great article, here's our Dave James back in the day in Corner Records c.1996.
This photo was taken in the Lorne Street location... first shop was in the basement on Queen Street & Victoria Street, where Whitcoulls is currently located.
That KISS pinball machine definitely added to the pinball obsessions of many in town!! (one of my fave's)
