2 classic Bowie LPs there, Station to Station and Hunky Dory bottom left. Also Simon and Garfunkel and 10cc on sale too

I think those are eight track cassettes on the wall above the LPs.

Only just come across this photo of Roy Hurst and it has certainly brought back a lot of memories as I knew him well and I spent many happy hours - and willingly spent quite a lot of my money - in his Wigan Market Hall stall, which was next to the side door leading out onto Market Street.
