    Not a physical shop, but I've found discogs.com to be a great resource for sourcing hard to find vinyl. That said, best of luck over there, its great craic sniffing through old vinyl!

    Rough Trade off Brick Lane if you want a good selection of new vinyl.

    Also, I completely forgot about that game. Might go myself.

    Rough Trade near Brick Lane is always worth a look. You'll probably also find a lot to like on Berwick Street in Soho - there are a whole bunch of record shops there, selling both new and second-hand stuff.

    I like Sister Ray on Berwick St and there is a few other shops down that road too.

    Also maybe not what you're looking for but there is a great independent punk shop in Camden, All Ages Records it is animal.
