- This is a run down of the Groove Records Hip Hop Sales Chart broadcast on the Mike Allen Capital Rap Show on 21st February 1986.
Groove Records was a small independent record shop in Soho, London. Every Friday night Mike Allen would count down the top 20 records on his Capital Rap Show.

Awesome,so many memories of this place!
Very fond memories of listing to this
Mike Allen. Legend, Pioneer, Friday nights with our fingers on the record button.
Awesome..hearing that tune "PARTY SCENE" By the RUSSELL BROTHERS used as the theme for the rap countdown..sends chills down my spine..fantastic memory from back in the day..
Been after this since i was 13 in 83.... worth the wait.
Never get bored of Mike Allan
What a fucking legend
Arrived here cos Ive been reading the new beastie Boys book and it brought back memories of growing up in London and being into Hip Hop, thanks to Mike Allen. Thanks for keeping this uploaded here, and for your brilliant site. Keep up the good work, man - Mike's show was a culturally important moment in the UK, and it should not be forgotten.
yeah baby
Yeah classic!!!!!!! Anybody still got the old Groove Records plastic bags?? First records i bought from there was WHAT I LIKE by TWO LIVE CREW & KING KUT by WORD OF MOUTH......FIZBOMBS AEROSOUL CONTROL ENGLAND.........
represent !!!
No Internet….no cell phones…..no streaming music….no downloading….
Listening to Capital Radio with the Boss, tuning into pirate stations like LWR with Tim Westwood and Max and Dave on Kiss FM
Hopping on the tube from Tottenham on at Saturday afternoon, going to HMV records on Oxford St, cutting over to Groove Records on Greek Street, then grabbing a Burger King, then heading off to Bluebird Records, then sometimes stopping at Four Star General…
Remember going to Groove and getting the 2nd P.E. Album, It Takes A Nation….
Using my Dads old tape recorder with a built in mic, pushing my separate radio up next to the tape deck, pressing play and record and sitting in silence coping those shows man…….
Sigh…..times have changed, the music….not forgotten. Still have my old collection from back then….Newcleus 1st album, the ICE-T 2nd album, Power….can’t forget that cover man! Eric B is President 12 inch and hearing Ra for the first time…the GOD MC….
Thanks man…for putting this channel together homes….you’ve made a 53 year old man who grew up in the golden age very nostalgic this afternoon in Canada, originally from North London, England.
Thanks for your detailed comment, I can relate to everything you’ve said. Listening to Mike Allen on Capital was so exciting, as you say no internet etc so it was the main source of new music. Literally every week you’d hear amazing new tunes, what a great time for music. We would also do a tour of the west end on a Saturday, Virgin & HMV on Oxford St, Tower at Piccadilly, Groove, Hitman, Reckless, Red Records, Daddy Kool all in Soho.
Such amazing times, we thought it would last forever, now just fond memories, but we were lucky to have experienced an incredible time
Mike Allan was the FUCKING BOSS!!!
Rap In Peace The Boss.
Real hip hop days.
Rest in peace Mike 🙏🏽
yeah man, the boss in london
Uk rap boss
Groove records was a regular on the weekends thanks to mike Allen..great memories thanks for posting 👍
R.I.P. Mike Allen
Remember staying up late as a 10 year old with twin tape deck recoding off capital radio on a Friday night
Wicked. The Boss make's the chart so exciting!
I remember the first record I bought from Groove was the 12" remix of Jam on Revenge and Destination Earth by Newcleus.
Very clever transition. Superb!
The best of times and the best shop on the planet. Sorley missed
