Delivery was quick and the album was worth the wait, one of the all time classic ambient albums, even if it isn't your favorite genre it's a classic album that definitely deserves a spin.

if you are a real ghostbusters fan you will enjoy this movie, it is what a franchise needed to rekindle the interests of the fans of ghostbusters and bring a new generation to the franchise. (R.I.P Ivan Reitman, the director of the ghostbusters).

undefined review of Real Gone in Amsterdam: The Classic Netherlands Broadcast- Volume 2 - Tom Waits [VINYL] image 1 out of 1
D. K.
I bought the two Real Gone in Amsterdam albims as they were part of the buy two for €50. No issues with the delivery. The records show Waits at his finest. The music was recorded for live broadcast hence the Amsterdam bit. The sound quality on Vol 1 and 2 is excellent. As I said on the Vol 1 review Waits is out of my comfort zone, but I will definitely now start to check his music further. All round, the albums were brilliant.

As they said, next working day delivery. Played the discs while working from home. Waits is out of my comfort zone. But I am now a convert. The album is superb. I also got Vol 2 of the set. So, if Vol 1 is anything to go by, I am really looking forward to it.

amazing album and great sound quality off the vinyl, just one complaint, the picture here says that it comes with two 12” posters but mine didn’t come with them. other than that it’s amazing :)

undefined review of A New Day Now: - Joe Bonamassa [VINYL Limited Edition] image 1 out of 1
A. S.
Okay so I order this record being a big Joe Bonamassa and this record doesn't disappoint one bit. The vinyl print itself is solid and doesn't loose sound as it goes through the songs. My biggest issue with this order is that the packaging the item came in is damaged not only on the cover but the sleeves that the records are actually in. Though from the looks of it, it has happened in transit with the delivery service. Its a shame as you can see the rips in the card used for the cover and scrat...

H. D.
I went into golden discs today. I had fabulous service. I couldn't find the record at first so a very friendly manager gave me a hand. He was telling me that on my streaming service that I can get another not that well known Ed sheeran album that I can listen to!!!! Of course I checked it out straight away. There is nothing at all they could improve because it was amazing service. I can't wait to go back!!!!!!

E. C.
It was just delay a lot and too many times, and we were not always notified. Anyway, these things happen, so nothing crucial - it's just lovely to receive notifications and stories behind the issues. Great record and initiative behind it, btw :)

Delighted with my recent purchase of the DVD from the wonderful show ‘Normal People’. The whole transaction was seamless and my order was delivered as stated on my order confirmation.

P. S.
To peel or not to peel? I didn't realise that new copies of Velvet Underground's Any Warhol album still come with the banana sticker. Such a temptation to peel... Rediscovering this album. I had it on tape years ago, then downloaded later, but nothing beats the listening experience than a vinyl version of this, it has great depth despite sounding quite lo-fi! This album is seminal. Apple Pay makes things easier... Well packaged and arrived in time although I see no reason why an item sent by ...

undefined review of Transformer - Lou Reed [VINYL] image 1 out of 1
P. S.
One of my all time favourite albums by one of the greats - Lou Reed. This album includes classics like 'Satellite of Love', 'Perfect Day', 'Walk on the Wild Side' and 'New York Telephone Conversation'. Game changing and seminal, this album was produced by David Bowie and Mick Ronson. I only had this album on tape before, so I'm over the moon to have it on vinyl now! Apple Pay makes things easier... Well packaged and arrived in time although I see no reason why an item sent by An Post cannot ...

undefined review of Once Upon a Time... In Hollywood - Quentin Tarantino [DVD] image 1 out of 1
J. B.
It's 1969, Hollywood and actor Rick Dalton, star of 1950s Western television series Bounty Law, fears his career is fading. Dalton's best friend and stunt double, Cliff Booth ( Brad Pitt, won a oscar for this role) is living in a trailer. The movie is reselling of the events surrounding the interaction of these two characters and the Manson gang's murders. This is a excellent movie and enjoyed every minute of the 169 minutes. Recommended 9 out of 10

This movie is brilliant from start to finish, has to be seen to be believed, the CGI of Morbius is so good and it's futuristic, the scene were Morbius fought Dominic Toretto was brilliant it was a family moment, Morbius loves his family, it was way better than the Titanic the ultimate action love story, Jared Leto deserves an Oscar for his acting skills in this movie a must have for your collection can't wait to see Morbius 2 morbin time

It stood the test of time and the sound quality is great With brilliant songs such as 'What It Takes,' 'The Other side' and Love in an Elevator.' There isnt a bad song on this album. Happy to recommend with 9 out 10

undefined review of Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets - Luc Besson [DVD] image 1 out of 1
J. B.
If you're worn down by grim visions of the future, Valerian is the antidote. It's rambunctious and outrageous, but above all else, it keeps things fun. Luc Besson is not the best of storytellers, but this is good enough to keep everybody entertained. Happy to recommend with 8 out of 10

undefined review of Inglourious Basterds - Quentin Tarantino [BLU-RAY] image 1 out of 1
J. B.
Inglorious Basterds is glorious!!!!! The film is so enjoyable, so entertaining, so smartly written, so well crafted, so beautifully lensed and so well acted that I didn't want it to end. Christoph Waltz, playing the Nazi Gestapo figure Col. Hans Landa, is the highlight of the film. Happy to recommend with 9 out of 10.

undefined review of Rambo: Last Blood - Adrian Grunberg [DVD] image 1 out of 1
J. B.
Rambo: Last Blood is a brutal way to say goodbye to an iconic action hero, covering topics and containing scenes that are almost difficult to stomach at times. Stallone, is still looking fit at the age of 73! Happy to recommend with 7 out of 10

undefined review of Godzilla Vs Kong - Adam Wingard [BLU-RAY] image 1 out of 1
J. B.
A skyscraper-trashing brawl in neon-lit Hong Kong is the action highlight, and a late appearance from another of Godzilla's old adversaries is sure to have fans roaring with delight. Great popcorn movie, happy to recommend with a 8 out of 10

J. B.
What can I say about the boss, he's made some great music over the years and this greatest hits album is one for the collection, I love every upbeat rock and slow melodic ballets to. Only downside is "I'm on Fire" is omitted. Would recommend to any Bruce Springsteen fan 9 out of 10

A lot is happening at the same time in different parts of the Galaxy, so the story moves quite fast, but attention is key. Infinity War In an enormous action spectacle that never lets up. Excellent movie and happy to recommend with a 8 out of 10

undefined review of Avengers Assemble - Joss Whedon [BLU-RAY] image 1 out of 1
J. B.
The Avengers Assembled begins with a bang and builds from there, a thrill ride peppered with Whedon's trademark self-aware humor. It's fun to watch all these egos clash, especially Downey, who just owns the Tony Stark role. It's a really great starting point movie to the 4 movie saga. Happy to recommend this movie with a 8 out of 10

J. B.
Films don't come any huger than this: the closing chapter to an 11-year saga in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, told across some 22 movies. And by the end of its three-hour runtime, there will definitely be tears. The Blu Ray release comes with a bonus disc of additional features that will keep all Marvel fans happy. This is a must own Blu Ray for any collection happy to recommend this movie with a 10 out of 10

undefined review of Blade Runner 2049 - Denis Villeneuve [BLU-RAY] image 1 out of 1
J. B.
Unlike the original film, where the "romance" feels like a product of Deckard's dehumanized relationship with Replicants, the romance between Ryan Gosling's K and Ana de Armas' Joi, both machines, feels real and keeps the film intriguing. The visuals of future Los Angeles are breathtaking, Brilliant movie, happy to recommend with a 9 out of 10
