The 5 best record shops for new vinyl in London

1) Sounds of the Universe

Soho has lost many record shops in the past decade or so, but one of the very best thankfully remains. SOTU is the place to go for reggae, Afro, Brazilian, jazz, underground house and electronica, as well as for soul, soundtracks and much more. They run the exemplary Soul Jazz reissue label, and also sell CDs, music books and secondhand vinyl.
