Might have had more shelf life if they had had more than 2 songs worth listening to - all style, no substance.

Accquired a double vinyl copy in replicas of the original sleeves from the US last year - one of those records I will always treasure.

First give it a good clean - warm water with a tiny dash of washing up liquid - use a microfiber cloth and move in circle.

My bad - we moved in early 1972 which was the year it closed - www.sainsburyarchive.org.uk/catalogue/se...
It was next door to the old Carnegie Library which was demolished and replaced with a real 60s monstrosity before we arrived.

I remember the Sainsbury's in Luton when we arrived in 1973 which was in the centre of town was as you describe - but it closed within a year and was replaced by the modern model further out.

If location is not an issue you want to be north of Newcastle. Between Alnwick and Tynemouth - personally I love Warkworth but may be a bit pricey.

All the Yorkshire coast is pretty remote to be honest - mostly an hour from the A1 except for the Hull area. Most of Scarborough (45 minutes to York) is a bit skanky in my experience (or maybe just the people I knew there). Lincolnshire is dull as Mr Plan advises.

As a punter I thought it was great - super to be able to see the pictures and products you are discussing.
