Anyone popped in here recently? While i'd like to support Rough Trade around the corner you have to admire Nudge (Hanbury St. Spitalfields) for being a shop with character. There seems to be a regular drunk in the corner shouting "Go-orn play someting lively...get the girls in" in fact there seems to be alot of drinking outside & behind the counter. They seem to have become a repository for about 10tons of old & worn out reggae/dancehall 45s....presumably old DJs are ditching this stuff in favour of CD. Plenty of other stuff besides include a delighful tray of 'blanks' 45's with little or no markings. A signed photo of Pete Doherty stares down at you and sooner or later the shop turntable plays something you gotta have. In a world of retail homogenization, digital downloads & closing record stores the world needs Nudge.

Nudge is a proper record shop. Recommended.
