Wrecka Stow: Music & Video Exchange – Greenwich, London

Located on one of the main streets in London’s Greenwich district, Music & Video Exchange is another place you can get lost in for hours, but go on a cool day. It was a hot day in London when I was there, and this store has no air conditioning (like most places in London, really).

Don’t let that keep you from visiting this place, though, as they have a ton of cool stuff there. I mean, look at this.

I love how they have a section of vinyl called “NOISE NOISE NOISE.”

Check out that “Mod Revival” section

They had a lot of cool, collectible vinyl there, and this wall of rare 45s was neat to see.

The Motörhead and Au Pairs discs alone are worth a look.

As if all this weren’t enough, there’s an entire basement full of CDs.

You can also see shelves of DVDs in that photo. There was a lot I wanted to dig through there, but the basement was so humid that I couldn’t stay long. I did find a cool score upstairs, however.

Ten pounds for ten Tangerine Dream albums? Uh, yeah. That’s a steal.

I’ll be sure to go back here if I’m ever in Greenwich again. I have a lot of bins to search there.

Keep your mind open.

I've been a music fan since my parents gave me a record player for Christmas when I was still in grade school. The first record I remember owning was "Sesame Street Disco." I've been a professional writer since 2004, but writing long before that. My first published work was in a middle school literary magazine and was a story about a zoo in which the animals could talk.
