Hello. Next weekend I'm traveling to London to see Lazarus and I was wondering if anyone knew any record shops where I can get some first issue Lps. Something like Ziggy or Aladdin Sane. Thx

I saw a first pressing Aladdin Sane in a shop in Beckenham going for £125  :|

Soho sometimes has something to offer in Sister Ray and Reckless. Mostly bootlegs these days.

£125 is outrageously over the top - and for a genuine first pressing it should be dynaflex with a hand written "TD" in the runout grooves.
Runout Wax A Side:    CPRS 4543      TD
Runout Wax B Side:    CPRS 4544      TD.
If that is missing then it is the second master, the one that was from then on used as the basis for all further pressings & re-issues. The first, withdrawn master, also sounds quite different.

You could try Sister Ray at 75 Berwick St, Soho, London W1F 8RP. This is one of the best we have still left open

Also a time out article
