Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3DCX6FJ - Clampdown Records is an independent record shop located at 9?11 Paton Street, Manchester M1 2BA, in Manchester city centre. The venue is part of the city's long-standing tradition of independent music retail, occupying a niche space away from mainstream high-street chains and reflecting Manchester's deep-rooted alternative music culture.
The shop's signage, prominently displaying the name Clampdown Records, references a confrontational, anti-establishment aesthetic closely associated with punk, post-punk and politically engaged music cultures. Such naming conventions have historically signalled alignment with underground scenes rather than commercial chart music, positioning shops like Clampdown as cultural hubs rather than purely retail outlets.
Independent record shops have played a crucial role in Manchester's music history, acting as meeting points for musicians, fans, collectors and promoters, and serving as informal distribution centres for local and international underground releases. In an era of digital streaming and declining physical retail, stores such as Clampdown Records are often cited as symbols of the vinyl revival and the persistence of analogue music formats valued for their tactile, collectible and cultural qualities.
Paton Street sits close to areas historically associated with Manchester's music and nightlife economy, and the presence of an independent record shop here contributes to wider discussions about urban regeneration, cultural survival and the future of independent high streets in UK cities. The image captures not only the physical storefront but also the broader cultural significance of independent music retail within Manchester's identity as a city shaped by sound, subculture and creative resistance.
Photographed in close-up with architectural details and signage clearly visible, the image offers strong editorial value for themes including music heritage, independent business, cultural economics and the continuing relevance

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2RWDK0N - A Scottish Soldier is a song written by Andy Stewart using the tune of The Green Hills of Tyrol, which was transcribed by John MacLeod during the Crimean War from La Tua Danza S? Leggiera, a chorus part in the third act of Gioachino Rossini's 1829 opera Guglielmo Tell (William Tell). The song is about a dying Scottish soldier, wishing to return to the hills of his homeland rather than die in the Tyrol. The song was one of two US chart entries by Andy Stewart. A Scottish Soldier reached no. 1 in Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. It spent 36 weeks in the UK Singles Chart in 1961.
This song was the entrance theme of professional wrestler Rowdy Roddy Piper
Andrew Stewart MBE (30 December 1933 ? 11 October 1993) was a Scottish singer and entertainer. He presented the BBC TV variety show The White Heather Club throughout the 1960s, and his song Donald Where's Your Troosers? was a hit in both 1960 and 1989. Internationally, the song most closely associated with Stewart is A Scottish Soldier.
Stewart was born in Glasgow, Scotland in 1933, the son of a teacher. When he was five years old, the family moved to Perth and then, six years later, to Arbroath.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2REGJ65 - A brightly coloured, hand-painted wooden sign mounted on a brick wall outside Leon's Store on Tabley Street in Northwich, Cheshire. The sign lists a wide range of goods including used furniture, clothing, house clearances, pre-loved furnishings, vintage and retro items, toys, games and vinyl records, reflecting the eclectic nature of independent second-hand retail.
The informal, recycled appearance of the sign, with individual painted wooden slats in different colours, conveys a do-it-yourself aesthetic often associated with small independent shops and reuse-based businesses. Such retailers play an important role in town centres like Northwich, combining affordability, sustainability and local character at a time when many UK high streets face pressure from vacancy and chain-store dominance.
Photographed in daylight, the image documents everyday independent retail culture in a provincial English town. It is suitable for editorial use relating to high-street change, small businesses, sustainability, reuse economies, and contemporary British town-centre life. Visible Text (fully analysed)

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2MKF7EC - Tobi Lark (born Bessie Grace Gupton
1941) is an American-born Canadian soul and gospel singer, who also recorded under the names Bessie Watson and Tobi Legend. She had a top 40 hit in 1970 in Canada with We're All in This Together. Elsewhere her best known record is Time Will Pass You By, regarded as a classic of Northern soul, which she recorded in 1968 believing it was just a demo
it was released under the name of Tobi Legend without her approval.
Life and career
She was born Bessie Grace Gupton in Alabama, the daughter of gospel singer Emma Washington. She grew up in Detroit and first performed in her mother's choir, the Emma Washington Gospel Singers. She toured with the group for ten years, from the age of nine, before securing her first professional job, as a backing singer for B. B. King. As Bessie Watson, she first recorded in 1963, releasing the single 'Deed I Do backed by the Cannonball Adderley Quintet, on the Riverside label, and then two singles, I'm in Your Corner and Wake Up Crying on the Jay Pee label. As Tobi Lark, she then recorded several singles for the Palmer, Topper, and U.S.D. labels, but none achieved much commercial success. She also performed with the Impressions, the Four Tops, Ben E. King, Wilson Pickett, King Curtis, and Duke Ellington, among others
In 1968, in Detroit, she recorded Time Will Pass You By, a song written by English-born songwriter and record producer John Rhys Eddins with Nick Zesses and Dino Fekaris. The record was released on the Mala label under the name Tobi Legend, but it was unsuccessful until it was picked up in the early 1970s by followers of the Northern soul scene in the UK. The song became known as one of the Three Before Eight, played at the conclusion of every all-nighter at the Wigan Casino club, and has since featured on several anthologies of Northern soul music including The Best Northern Soul All-Nighter ... Ever!, The Northern Soul Story, and The Wigan Casino Story

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R5PP7B - Linguaphone is a global language training provider based in London that has provided self-study language courses since 1901.
Methodology
Linguaphone's self-study courses follow Linguaphone's in-house methodology of Listen, Understand, Speak. Students are encouraged to listen to the language from the beginning, to begin to read as they listen, and only to speak once they have learned to understand the language presented.
Linguaphone was established in 1901 by Jacques Roston, a translator and language teacher, born in Poland, (Ko?o), and they were the first language training company to recognise the potential of combining the traditional written course with the wax cylinder and later with records.
At the height of their popularity, Linguaphone was not only a large, international publishing house with many prestigious representative offices (for books, records, tapes and cassettes) but they also ran fashionable language schools in a number of major cities across the world, such as London, Paris, New York and Tokyo. This chain of Linguaphone Institutes could claim to be the second oldest among the international language teaching establishments (the oldest being Berlitz, founded in 1878 and known today as Berlitz International, with the controversial[why?] Berlitz method) and, as such, Linguaphone had, at one time, the privilege of being an almost automatic first choice among the famous of the day, including royalty.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2ADE492 - A rubber duck (also known as a rubber ducky) is a toy shaped like a stylized duck, generally yellow with a flat base. It may be made of rubber or rubber-like material such as vinyl plastic. Rubber ducks naturally inspire water play that develops muscle strength and coordination. With their bright color, smooth texture, and (for some) squeaky or quacky sounds, rubber ducks sharpen toddlers' senses[citation needed]. Their presence in the bathtub soothes youngsters' fears of water and water immersion and makes good clean fun of the routine hygiene they are learning. The yellow rubber duck has achieved an iconic status in Western pop culture and is often symbolically linked to bathing.
Sculptor Peter Ganine created a sculpture of a duck in the 1940s. He then patented it and reproduced it as a floating toy, of which over 50 million were sold
Rubber ducks are collected by enthusiasts. The 2011 Guinness World Record for World's Largest Rubber Duck Collection stood at 5,631 different rubber ducks, and was awarded to Charlotte Lee. In 2013, the rubber duck was inducted into the Toy Hall of Fame, a museum in Rochester, New York, along with the game of chess. Toys are selected based on factors like icon-status, longevity, and innovation
Rubber duck races, also known as derby duck races, have been used as a method of fundraising for organizations worldwide. People donate money to the organization by sponsoring a duck. At the end of the fundraising drive, all of the ducks are dumped into a waterway, with the first to float past the finish line winning a prize for its sponsor.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2AFFFA7 - In music, a single is a type of release, typically a song recording of fewer tracks than an LP record or an album. This can be released for sale to the public in a variety of formats. In most cases, a single is a song that is released separately from an album, although it usually also appears on an album. Typically, these are the songs from albums that are released separately for promotional uses such as digital download or commercial radio airplay and are expected to be the most popular. In other cases a recording released as a single may not appear on an album

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy RFF662 - Eastern Bloc was established in 1985 by John Berry & Martin Price (808 State). The shop was originally located in Afflecks Palace and has recently moved to its present location on Stevenson Square (5a Stevenson Sq, Northern Quarter, Manchester, M1 1DN) in 2011. It soon became a cultural icon and integral part within the Manchester music scene. Back in the late 80's E Bloc helped to launch bands such as the Inspiral Carpets, while also hosting in-store signings with The Stone Roses and Happy Mondays. The shop was also responsible for breaking much of the new dance music at the time, being one of the only shops in the UK to import dance music from around the globe. One of the owners went on to become part of 808 State. E Bloc also had heavy involvement in the early career paths of A Guy Called Gerald & K Klass. Many famous faces have worked behind the counter or been regular customers in the shop. Local DJ's and globe trotting club DJ's would use E Bloc as their first port of call to get their hands on the latest vinyl promos. Customers include Laurent Garnier, Jon Da Silva, Mike Pickering, Graeme Park, Sasha, Chemical Brothers, DJ Marky, Anthony Shake Shakir, Pepe Bradock, Eric Morillo, Josh Wink, Ben Sims, James Holroyd, Derrick Carter, Carl Cox, Synkro, Indigo, AnD, XXXY, Jon K, Rich Reason and many more. Previous members of staff include Justin Robertson, Marcus Intalex, Mark XTC, Moonboots, Dean Wilson, Paul Walker, Paul Taylor, Karl Roscoe, Chris Fatboy.
E Bloc has always been at the cutting edge of the music scene as is arguably one of the most respected, renowned, influential and notorious in the world. Today, the store is still shifting vinyl and cd's, specialising mainly in drum & bass, jungle, dubstep, house, techno and electronica
As mentioned before, we relocated in 2011 to Stevenson Square in the Northern Quarter, where we continue to provide the best in electronic music on vinyl.

Forty-five is a triangular number, and in particular the sum of all the decimal digits (0 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 9 = 45). It is the smallest triangle number (after 1) which can be written as the sum of two squares. It is also a hexagonal and 16-gonal number.
The '45 refers to the 1745 Jacobite Rising in Great Britain, or the year that World War II ended, which was 1945. Guns or ammunition of .45 caliber. In the United States, '45' is often a reference to one of two specific .45 caliber cartridges\u2014 the .45 Colt or the .45 ACP.
Its a type of gramophone record classified by its revolution speed of 45 revolutions per minute (rpm). One of the key 45 single generating labels of my youth was Stiff.
Stiff Records is a British independent record label formed in London, England, by Dave Robinson and Andrew Jakeman (aka Jake Riviera). Originally active from 1976 to 1985, the label was reactivated in 2007.
Established at the outset of the punk rock boom, Stiff Records signed various punk and New Wave acts such as Nick Lowe, The Damned, Lene Lovich, Wreckless Eric, Plummet Airlines, Elvis Costello, and Ian Dury. The label's marketing and advertising was often provocative and witty billing itself as 'The World's Most Flexible Record Label'. Other slogans were 'We came. We saw. We left', 'If It Ain't Stiff, It Ain't Worth a F**k', and 'When You Kill Time, You Murder Success' (printed on promotional wall clocks).
On the label of Stiff's sampler compilation Heroes &
Cowards was printed: 'In '78 everyone born in '45 will be 33-1/3'. A very early Stiff sampler album, A Bunch of Stiff Records, introduced the slogan, 'If they're dead, we'll sign them' and 'Undertakers to the Industry'.
This is the first vingle single released on the label (Buy-1) So It Goes, by Nick Lowe. Here in its original Stiff sleeve.

The record carries the catalogue number Stiff BUY 1A, marking it as the first official release on the Stiff Records label.
Stiff Records played a pivotal role in the development of British punk, new wave, and pub rock, launching or supporting artists including Elvis Costello, Ian Dury, The Damned, and Wreckless Eric. So It Goes is widely regarded as a foundational release of the UK punk era, blending raw energy with pop songwriting.
The distinctive blue-and-black label design and promotional slogans reflect Stiff Records' irreverent branding and DIY ethos. The image is suitable for editorial use covering music history, punk culture, record collecting, independent labels, and 1970s British popular music.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DEJNDD - The phonograph, record player, or gramophone (from the Greek: gramma, letter and phn?, voice), is a device introduced in 1877 for the recording and reproduction of sound recordings. The recordings played on such a device consist of waveforms that are engraved onto a rotating cylinder or disc. As the cylinder or disc rotates, a stylus or needle traces the waveforms and vibrates to reproduce the recorded sound waves.
The phonograph was invented in 1877 by Thomas Edison. While other inventors had produced devices that could record sounds, Edison's phonograph was the first to be able to reproduce the recorded sound. His phonograph originally recorded sound onto a tinfoil sheet phonograph cylinder, and could both record and reproduce sounds.
Alexander Graham Bell's Volta Laboratory made several improvements in the 1880s, including the use of wax-coated cardboard cylinders, and a cutting stylus that moved from side to side in a zig zag pattern across the record. At the turn of the 20th century, Emile Berliner initiated the transition from phonograph cylinders to gramophone records: flat, double-sided discs with a spiral groove running from the periphery to near the center.
Other improvements were made throughout the years, including modifications to the turntable and its drive system, the needle and stylus, and the sound and equalization systems.
The gramophone record was one of the dominant audio recording formats throughout much of the 20th century. From the mid-1980s, phonograph use declined sharply because of the rise of the Compact Disc and other digital recording formats. While no longer mass market items, modest numbers of phonographs and phonograph records continue to be produced in the second decade of the 21st century.

It was a music time of change too. Older brothers ELP, Greenslade and Mott gave way to the filth and the fury.
Pub bands quickly morphed into punk bands. Belle Vue, The Mayflower and the Electric Circus was the baptism. Slaughter &
The Dogs, V2, Albertos, The Distractions and the Manchester Music Collective. Lifts to be scrounged, strange orange SELNEC bus journeys, photocopied fanzines.
John Peel was the daddy, 10 til 12 under the candlewick bedspread, then Piccadilly Records on Saturday to track down his faves. Which mostly became his faves, running through his life like letters in a stick of rock.

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 4601233205 - 'Well, this will be one year when I cannot vote for the 'Official Monster Raving Loony Party'. Lord Sutch (or David Edward Sutch aka the 3rd Earl of Harrow) being no longer with us. With his death 16th June 1999, one strand of eccentric British tradition ended.
I once met him before the 1997 election. I had a short chat at a gig in Macclesfield when photographing a rock band who was supporting him. He certainly had many contacts in the music world, as this old vinyl album of mine testifies.
In 1963, Sutch and his manager, Reginald Calvert, took over Shivering Sands Army Fort, a Maunsell Fort off Southend. From there in 1964 they started 'Radio Sutch'. It was the time of pirate radio stations such as Radio Caroline. Broadcasts consisted of music and Mandy Rice-Davies reading Lady Chatterley's Lover. Sutch tired of the station, and sold it to Calvert, which was renamed 'Radio City', which lasted until 1967. In 1966 Calvert was shot dead by Oliver Smedley over a financial dispute. Smedley was acquitted on grounds of self-defence. About this time Ritchie Blackmore left his band, 'The Savages' to form prog rockers 'Deep Purple'.
In 1968, Sutch toured parts of the United States in the Rolls Royce on this cover, with a Union Jack Flag on the roof and a trailer of Marshall amplifiers to sell, hitched to the back. This album 'Lord Sutch and Heavy Friends' was named in a 1998 BBC poll as the worst album of all time, a status it also held in Colin Larkin's book The Top 1000 Albums of All Time. All despite the fact that Jimmy Page, John Bonham, Jeff Beck, Noel Redding and Nicky Hopkins performed on it and helped write it.
In the Rolling Stones song 'Get Off of My Cloud', the guy who shows up 'All dressed up just like a Union Jack' was infact Lord Sutch, uninvited in Mick Jagger's room.
He founded the Official Monster Raving Loony Party in the UK 1983 and fought the Bermondsey by-election. In his career he contested over 40 elections, rarely threatening the major candidates, but often getting a respectable number of votes. He was easily recognisable at election counts by his flamboyant clothes. It was after he polled several hundred votes in Margaret Thatcher's Finchley constituency in 1983 that the deposit paid by candidates was raised from \u00a3150 to \u00a3500. This did little to deter Sutch, who increased the concerts he performed to pay for campaigns.
His most significant contribution to politics came at the Bootle by-election in 1990. He secured more votes than the candidate of the Continuing Social Democratic Party (SDP), led by former Foreign Secretary David Owen. Within days the SDP dissolved itself. In 1993, when the British National Party gained its first local councillor, Derek Beackon, Sutch pointed out that the Official Monster Raving Loony Party already had six.

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 4234549401 - 'I was listening to this on my iPod yesterday and thought how apt it was given the strange wintery weather we have had of late. Check it out here.
The image I took from my ipod (like the MP3 sound I was getting) was no match for the real thing, a genuine 12' 45rpm single of the B5.
I saw them live in 1980 and they were more memorable than the headline band they supported.
Of course they were produced by the great but mis-guided Martin Hannet, who no doubt helped them achieve their unique Reggae-Punk sound.
I would recommend any music fan to checkout 'Who Killed Martin Hannett?: The Story of Factory Records' Musical Magician' or the excellent CD 'Zero: A Martin Hannett Story 1979-1991'
However do avoid 'In the Studio With Martin Hannett' - you will be dissapointed, sorely.
He was a big user of narcotics and drink, and this was to eventually hasten his death at the age of 41. Just before he died he had ballooned to 26 stone (364 pounds) and his coffin could not fit in the ground.
He was the total musical pioneer, always searching to create his own unique sound.
Of many 'Martin Hannett' Stories, one favourite is about when he once fell asleep over the mixing desk, his gigantic belly spreading and pushing the faders across the board, so that the sound went berserk -- the band stopped playing, and woke him up telling him that the levels were all over the place. 'Bollocks,' he replied, 'that's the best you've sounded all f---ing day.'
Interesting too that producer on this cut is Chris Nagle, also later involved with Clayton lads Gabrielle\u2019s Wish and Jane Weaver's Kill Laura - www.flickr.com/photos/hotpixuk/3809868192/

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R5PPB2 - Top of the Pops (TOTP) is a British music chart television programme, made by the BBC and broadcast weekly between 1 January 1964 and 30 July 2006. The programme was the world's longest-running weekly music show. For most of its history, it was broadcast on Thursday evenings on BBC One. Each show consisted of performances of some of the week's best-selling popular music records, usually excluding any tracks moving down the chart, including a rundown of that week's singles chart. This was originally the Top 20, though this varied throughout the show's history. The Top 30 was used from 1969, and the Top 40 from 1984.
Dusty Springfield's I Only Want to Be with You was the first song featured on TOTP, while the Rolling Stones were the first band to perform, with I Wanna Be Your Man. Snow Patrol were the last act to play live on the weekly show when they performed their single Chasing Cars.
Editions of the programme from 1976 onwards started being repeated on BBC Four in 2011 and are aired on most Friday evenings ? as of January 2023 the repeat run has reached 1994. Episodes featuring disgraced presenters and artists such as Jimmy Savile, Dave Lee Travis, Jonathan King, Ian Watkins, R Kelly, Rolf Harris, and Gary Glitter are no longer repeated
2005: The beginning of the end
Figures had plummeted to below three million, prompting an announcement by the BBC that the show was going to move, again, to Sunday evenings on BBC Two, thus losing the prime-time slot on BBC One that it had maintained for more than forty years.
This move was widely reported as a final sidelining of the show, and perhaps signalled its likely cancellation. At the time, it was insisted that this was so the show would air immediately after the official announcement of the new top 40 chart on Radio 1, as it was thought that by the following Friday, the chart seemed out of date. The final Top of the Pops to be shown on BBC One (barring Christmas and New Year specials) was broadcast on Monday 1
