He spent three years listening to and surrounded by music every day. "It had that very much underground feel. Unpolished. "People felt as if they could hang out here. It was a shop for the local community."  Charlie Gardiner But music downloads proved the shop's downfall. In March 2009 it closed. "It was so horrible to see the decline. It's a real shame."
