I was pretty sad when Real Groovy closes a few years ago in Welly but glad to see that this shop is still going strong. They have a great selection of all types of music and their vinyl is priced really well and you are bound to find a gem amongst it all. The staff are really great as well. A must see on Cuba.     

With dwindling numbers of record stores only the best survive and there is no other that have the loyal following of Dennis O'Brien and his crew at Slow Boat Records that has been around for almost three decades. Find rare vinyl or your favourite band's T-shirt, this place is more than a record store it's all about the experience and customer service.

If you love Dudley benson then this is the shop for you
