Flyright Records Sackville Road Bexhill – lp paper bag

Supplied by Leon Parker

Mike Waghorne… remember the shop I must have bought many lp’s in there over a few years.

Peter Stacey… Love it I worked at Flyright for many years

Reid McDuffie… Peter, So you did! Enduring the constant request of me and my teenage mates to spin obscure prog rock tracks! I recall running into you again many years later working the festival circuit.

David Boss… Had there own record label. Bought some great rockabilly 45s back in the 70s great people and great memories.

Chris Baker… remember a music shop owned by Birds. Father and son. Anyone know if they were connected?

Alan Esdaile… Not as far as I know but both in Sackville Road.

Dave Nattress… Indeed, spent plenty in there buying vinyl records. May as well have put the monthly salary cheque straight in their account. The shop had really nice, pleasant, knowledgeable staff. A young Terry Pack for one notable, well I say young, well he was, and would be a similar age to me. They had an appealing stock list rather more to it than the op 20, so hence I spent my dosh there.

 

Masons Music Record Shop Bag

The logo was designed by ‘John Wilde’. I wanted something that covered all the different musical tastes we catered for. At the time we were selling to lots of  Mods,  Psychobilly, Punks, Rock etc. I think he did an excellent job of getting the image right.

Malcolm McDonald… When we had some decent record shops in Hastings.

Andy Ives… Malcolm, Masons was my favourite back in the day

Tony Ham… I carried many of those bags, crammed to bursting point, from the shop to the railway station, the handles were stretched to their limits and cutting off the circulation to my fingers by the time I got home!

Andy Ives… Classic bag remember it well wish I still had one

David Wilkinson… Sadly none on ebay !!!

Allan Mitchell… Very impressive!

Will Cornell… Oooooh what I wouldn’t give for a Tshirt with this on it, Alan

 

Paul Marshall and Zena – Masons Music 187 Queens Road Hastings – early 80’s and early record bag.

welcome to our newest member to SMART Paul Marshall

Paul Marshall… Wow

Tony May… I think the fact that the calendars on the wall say 1983 gives a clue to the year! (lol) Great pic, good times…

Paul Marshall… I am just doing the maths as well. I just turned 51 so I would have been just 17 in that pic  and the lovely Zena.

Tony May… A really early one! I’m not sure if you even had bags when I bought my ‘MUD Greats’ single on the pier?

Alan Esdaile… probably paper bags, white for singles, brown for lp’s and at one stage would have had a rubber stamp name on the bag.

Zoe Honey… you will have the same hairstyle once this lockdown is over 💇‍♂️😅 xxxxxxx
