Our Story

1985

Spins & Needles was founded out of a passion for music by Jack Dilger. The shop was originally located in the iconic Afflecks Palace, quickly becoming a cornerstone of Manchester's vibrant music scene.

1990s

The shop became a cultural icon and integral part of the Manchester music scene. We were 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.

2012

Moved to our current location at 21 Port St, Manchester M1 2EQ, bringing our passion for music and community to a new generation of vinyl enthusiasts.
