Mary Portas has some advice for HMV in Sunday’s Telegraph based on her visit to their shop in Gatwick airport. Not an obvious choice I would have thought. Simon Fox won’t be too perturbed with her comments I’m sure but his visual merchandising director and independent shops may not be too happy.
Oh, and I’d fire the visual merchandising director. If you feel as passionately as I do about record shops and think they should stay on our high streets, please give His Master’s Voice a chance and buy your next album from HMV.
Thanks Mary
