If you go down these stairs, you'll be entering the underground cathedral of Reverend Beat-Man, a leading figure in the town's punk rock scene for the last four decades. Beat-Man is still performing garage blues trash exorcisms as a one man band, spreading the word with Sister Izobel Garcia and celebrating very unholy moshpit masses with the legendary "Monsters" in clubs all over the world - but the Reverend always returns to this tiny little underground store to sell records from his very own "Voodoo Rhythm" label to music lovers of all kind.
I love browsing through the vinyls to find out what Kinds of Music I have missed so far. Some of my more recent favourites are the Zydeco Group Mama Rosin, the Monsters Album "Pop Up Yours". And when I am overwhelmed by the vast amount of rarities and pearls in the store - it's never wrong to buy one of the label samplers called "Records To Ruin Any Party". You will not be disappointed.
