I don't post much here these days, so apologies if it's already posted.

The BBC's The Culture Show have 50 plaques to place around the country to celebrate what they call the 50th anniversary of the birth of popular culture. Plaques have been placed already at the school where Gregory's Girl was filmed in Cumbernauld and Ken Russell's boyhood home where he first projected movies and nurtured his talent.

You can make suggestions for a place on the website at www.bbc.co.uk/cultureshow and I think the electronics shop on Kings Road where Neil & Chris met in 1981 is a genuinely good suggestion. Is it still there?

Send them your own PSB related location if you like, but I think that really was a momentous occasion for British popular culture.

I was going to post this!!

Great idea - was the shop called chelsea records?

Yeah, this is a good idea. Can anyone confirm the actual address of what was once the infamous electronics shop? I'm going to be in London in a few weeks, so might have a wander along to see it. I'm quite surprised I've never had a look already actually. I do remember being quite pleased when I stood outside Applejacks restaurant in New York knowing it was where Neil first met Bobby O.
