about us
Piccadilly Records was born in 1978, was taken over by the present management in 1990 and moved up the road to our current location in Manchester's record shopping Mecca, the Northern Quarter in 1997 - take a look!
We pride ourselves on our friendly, helpful service and our across-the-board range of music.
Please note that THIS WEBSITE IS NOT A STOCKLIST! As we are a real shop and not a computer-controlled warehouse, seeing a record listed here does NOT guarantee that we have it in stock.
We do try to keep the website as up-to-date as possible though, and once a limited item is no longer available we will remove it from sale.
As many of our records need to be ordered from overseas or from small distributors and labels, we recommend that you allow us 5 working days to order out of stock items for you.

this week's thoughts...
Hello,
Hope you're all having a nice Bank Holiday (in the UK) or just a good day (elsewhere). We've had the Futuresonic and Sounds From The Other City festivals going on up here, so it's been a bit of a crazy menkal weekend. Oh, and you know when I said in last week's intro that you should get your Sounds From The Other City tickets asap? Did you listen? No. Instead we sold out on Friday afternoon, and then I had to answer non-stop phone calls all day Saturday asking for tickets. Next year, get f**king organised!!!
Anyway, instead of those things, I flitted between Keep It Unreal (sorry Mr Scruff, but there was someone JUGGLING in your club, so we had to leave) and El Diablo's Social Club (no jugglers, just Danny Webb onstage doing slinky hips invisible lassoo dancing), which was like a mini Electric Chair reunion, but with added stepped seating.
And while I'm mentioning nights out, you might want to check out Northern Comfort (Sat 10th May, The Salutation, 8pm - 12.30am, free), who continue their monthly playing-nice-music-in-a-pub session, this time inviting Friends & Family / Eyes Down DJ Jon K to spin some discs and sup ale with them.
On Friday 16th May, Piccadilly favourites Speck Mountain are in town, they're playing with The Ruby Suns, The Beep Seals and Cats In Paris in an Akoustik Anarkhy sponsored night at everyone's favourite new venue, The Deaf Institute. We have tickets for sale instore, £6 plus the booking fee.
