Big record stores are Tower and Virgin, but you won't find any bootlegs there.

Try the flea market in Camden, you might have a better chance there Wink

there are two shops i visit in Soho (no not them) i cant remember where they are but ill try to explain in soho there is a street with a lot of peepshows in the middle of this street there is an ally way as you walk up you will see a market and to the left a food shop (Londis Happyshopper???) about 50 meters further up there is this record shop i think its called Pied Piper but may be totally wrong thats one of them anyhow. I think if you keep on same street and walk futher up 200 300 mtrs towards oxford steet there are two more shops they used to be good 10 yrs ago but last 5 years not so good. The steet in question is actually featured on the cover of Oasis's Whats the Story Mornin Glory album.

i have found that bootlegs are a nightmare to get hold of in London due to the big stores like Virgin Tower records HMV being so close to these stores.

Camden used to have some good shops but the ones i used to visit have since vanished if you find a good one let me know cheers

If you go to this particular guy, keep in mind that he charges A LOT for the bootlegs you want to buy...
