Doc (blackspot)… https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100009606549353&fref=ts

Been on the Limerick scene for years- Owned Blacksport Record store on Wickham street for years but he now has a stall down the Limerick market on weekends and has also opened a new store on Roches Street called ‘Two hands’ - Has connections all over the country and abroad and is a good man to query about albums. Mainly deals in second hand at reasonable prices - if you get to know him at all he will do you a deal more often than not- A big Limerick FC fan and a genuine music lover.

Gone down tempo a bit here.

Great work. Some of his best on that. Solsbury Hill being a fine example.

Picked up Born to Run for 14 notes today off Doc below in the market.

Lovely stuff. Does the Doc keep a list of his stock?

In his head, mate. Mention an artist and he’ll know if he or someone else has it. If you’re looking for anyone in particular fire on a pm and I’ll get onto him…if youre looking a list to browse through I’m not sure if he has one but I can ask him if you want?

Where is this Doc character? Sounds like someone I need to visit.

Ask him the next time you see him.

Decent vinyl sale on in Tower in Dublin today.

I was served by the gentleman in the front of this photo.

Brian was the drummer in the 1980s Dublin Cramps tribute band the Gorehounds and then went on to run Comet Records in Temple Bar where I basically spent all of my dispisable income in the late 1980s and early 1990s. . He was a bit shy when I tried to engage him about his time in Comet, but I left him with the thought that he must have very fond memories of the time.

Listening to my favourite Nirvana album here.
