Easy Listening details are as follows

My name is Terry Rees and I opened my music stall in Pontypridd in 1998 having finished my last job after 18 years. I decided that I would start a business involving the retail of music which has been an interest of mine all my life. After eight years of business, the stall has become a reliable source of music for all my customers. Many of these who live within the locality have helped me build my business into what it is today. With the introduction of broadband at the point of sale, I am able to provide customers with upto date prices and availabilities of their required products.

We stock a wide variety of CDs and DVDs from the 1940s to the present day. Whether it's Jazz to Metal, or Ballads to Blues you're looking for you'll find it here. We pride ourselves on fulfilling requests from all types of musical tastes.

Launched in October 2008, the RETROSPECTIVE label is a partnership between Nimbus Records and veteran nostalgia specialist Ray Crick, who has the job of selecting the repertoire, compiling the programmes, sourcing the highest quality  transfers, and supplying biographies and informative notes for the booklets. “I am delighted to be involved with RETROSPECTIVE because it enables me to create CD programmes that bring alive the finest recordings by those wonderful  vintage entertainers of yesteryear, both popular and jazz, for people to enjoy today.”

New releases are added every month, delivering the very best in musical nostalgia from music hall to rock ‘n’ roll – and everything in between! We hope you will relish these classic recordings from the past. Packaged with an iconic  series design, and with booklets containing all the detailed information needed to enhance your pleasure, RETROSPECTIVE is a highly collectable range.

In 1989 Nimbus turned the opera world upside down when it launched the historic reissue series Prima Voce. Taking mint condition 78s they presented recordings made by the great singers between 1902 and 1958.

Adrian Farmer, Music Director for Nimbus, commented, "We decided right at the beginning to dedicate Prima Voce to Opera singers, which meant that a great many of the more popular performers were passed by. We now feel that the time is right to revisit the period and showcase some of the popular artists who made the 1920s, 30s, 40s and 50s the golden age of music."

The label launched in October with 25 releases including 2 CD sets by George Formby, Fred Astaire, Humphrey Lyttelton, Nat King Cole, Paul Robeson and Tony Martin, and single discs by Alma Cogan, André Previn, Eartha Kitt, Louis  Armstrong, Perez Prado and Sammy Davis Jr. The label will release ten discs per month covering both Nostalgia and Vintage Jazz.

The new label will be managed by veteran nostalgia specialist Ray Crick, who is tasked with sourcing the highest quality transfers, plus detailed biographies and informative notes for the booklets. "I am delighted to be involved with  RETROSPECTIVE because it gives me the chance to create CD programmes that will bring alive the finest recordings by those wonderful vintage entertainers of yesteryear, both popular and jazz, for people to enjoy here and now. The first 25  sets out our stall, with music stretching from the music hall to jug bands to rock ‘n’ roll! We anticipate that the entire project will total more than 400 releases, each with a smart series design, making for a highly collectable range."

Midland are the UK's leading independent supplier of specialist pre-recorded budget CD and DVD products to non-traditional outlets. A family run business of some 50 years whose journey began on the rain and snow lashed markets of the  Midlands. The business expanded rapidly during the sixties and seventies with Midland becoming a leading player in the wholesale distribution of major label overstocks and deletions worldwide, whilst continuing to service the non traditional retail sector here in the UK.

With the industry wide problem of piracy and downloading making higher value products virtually impossible to retail, Midland felt the need to give our customers something different and have concentrated our efforts towards the more neglected areas of audio, visual home entertainment, and now stock what we believe to be the most comprehensive range of Special Interest DVD’s in the UK.

Our core business of supplying our customers with ranges of super budget and budget CD and DVD remains the same, but we have now incorporated these new specialist product lines aimed specifically at the online market place namely Amazon, Play, and Ebay.

With over 6000 titles available and new lines arriving daily we are confident that you will find many items that will compliment your existing range of product. Should you need any help with your initial selections please contact us, with over 50 years experience you can be sure our advice will prove invaluable.
