Re: Mary's Music

Must admit I found the woman in Marshalls a bit pushy - always trying to sell you something. Still, she obviously, did the trick for you (the original version by the Platters I assume?). The staff in...

Re: Mary's Music

Mary's was the best record shop in town (and there was some pretty stiff competition from the likes of Bandbox, Tony's and later, Marshall's). No matter how obscure the record was (and I asked for...

Re: Mary's Music

I don't know about anybody else, but I love Darby's and Terry's reminiscences of life in 50's Accy. I was only a nipper at the time and it's all a revelation to me. In fact, I sometimes think I would...

Re: Mary's Music

It sounds like my sort of pub! Sadly though, yet another one on the ever-growing list of great boozers that are now only a fond memory - the Bull Brig, Blockade, Union, Palatine, Langs Arms, "Big"...

Re: Mary's Music

Re: Mary's Music

There used to be a pub on the site of the gardens behind St James's Church. I don't remember it myself, but my dad told me about it. It was called the Bay Horse, but it was known as the "Learner's...

Re: Mary's Music

I vaguely remember it. There was a dancehall above it which was also run by Joe and Mary...but Darby would know much more about all that, as it's more his era.

Re: Mary's Music

Must admit I can't remember the Bricklayers Arms, Al (although I usually have a good memory for pubs!). The only pubs I can remember around there were the New Brewery and Royal Oak, but they were...

Re: Mary's Music

Mary's was the best record shop in Accy. You could ask for the most obscure record (and I asked for some pretty obscure ones, believe me!) and Mary would order it and have it ready and waiting for...
