jeffsjazz Posted January 7, 2006 Report Share Posted January 7, 2006 In Amsterdam try the Blue Note and most definitely "Concerto"-nice selection and goood prices. Happy shopping! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ornette Posted January 11, 2006 Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 Honest Jon's is actually at the other end of Portobello Road, just past the bridge, towards Ladbroke Grove. However in my view it is not worth a visit - jazz stock is now very small and not very up to date either. Shame you are not visiting Birmingham - the Record Centre is one of the best in the country for jazz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went there in 1990, when I was on a training course in Birmingham, and bought some good stuff. Then I changed my job and didn't have a reason to return until 2002. I'd forgotten where it was, by then... MG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It came from The Diskery Bromsgrove St Is that the same place with a different name? MG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
