Leeds Corn Exchange hosted regular record fairs in the late 1980s and 1990s offering collectors the chance to find that missing must have vinyl from artists of all musical genres. Fast forward to 2025 and the fair has returned to the city centre landmark every month thanks to Record Plant who boast shops selling second hand records and memorabilia at Sunny Bank Mills in Farsley and on Gillygate in York. Your YEP popped down to the Corn Exchange to thumb through the vinyl and check out what was on offer. READ MORE: Unseen photos chart of a golden age of Leeds pub culture LOVE LEEDS? LOVE NOSTALGIA?
