We are hoping to strike a chord with these HMV archive photos.

What a great time it is to take a look at retro HMV scenes from the Echo archives.

After all, the business has just moved into bigger premises in The Bridges, as reported in the Sunderland Echo.

Were you at the store when the Futureheads, Hometown, Hungover Stuntmen or Sheena Easton visited?

We have reminders of them all so why not browse through our collection before you get in touch to share your memories.

The Futureheads met fans and signed copies of their new CD at the store 14 years ago. Were you there?
