Jumbo Records

If your looking for something a bit different away from the mainstream music the likes of HMV and Zavvi sell this is the shop you needs to go in.

They have a great collection of CD's and Records to suit many musical tastes. The shop is organised very very well and it is easy to find what your looking for.

As well as the very nice music collection they stock, they also tickets to gigs in and around Leeds and as well this tickets for club nights coming up in and around Leeds including the likes of sub dub, exodus and kissdafunk.

Excellent record and cd shop. They have a nice selection of non mainstream bands, I particularly like the world section. Staff are very helpful here.

Excellent independent record shop in Leeds city centre. A great selection of records and CDs as well as the best collection of gig tickets in Leeds.

Miles away from the airless vacuum of HMV or Virgin, Jumbo records has character to spare, a friendly face and stacks of wax. Soul, electronica, avant-garde noise, funk, post rock and indie - you name it, it'll have it (or they'll order it in). The staff know what they're on about, and more importantly they know what you're on about. I didn't even mention the staff recommendations, gig tickets, online shop (www.jumborecords.co.uk) and the music magazines. Oh well, next time.
