Just having a calming hour or so listening to the "Heavy Classix" compilation. Favourite tracks today have been: Romeo and Juliet, Suite No. 2 for orchestra, Op. 64 - Montagues and Capulets  ...by Prokofiev, it's an easily recognisable, stirring piece of music. ...and Khachaturian's Sabre Dance |

...and Khachaturian's Sabre Dance You should listen to the original version by Dave Edmund's Love Sculpture -- it's a top Welsh tune   |

I had forgotten about the time when newsagents had smallish amounts of records for sale -- that was how I first got hold of a copy of Lorraine Ellison's Stay With Me. It was an import re-issue. Very impressive remebering the catalogue number off the top of your head Joe |

Although I can remember a few catalogue numbers, Nick - I have my (Lotus Approach) music database installed on my work laptop - easy enough to get details like this (and lists).
Best buy from this newsagent (which disappeared in the early 90s I think) was Bob & Earl's "Pickin' Up Loves Vibrations" (an excellent slow burner) on U.K. Uni UN519 (from my database!!!) in 1970
