Niiiice! beatdrifter's snap of the Ray's Jazz signage (simply titled Jazzz) is a nice reminder of London's independent spirit.
When rent hikes meant Ray's had to relocate, Foyles made some space for the store up on its first floor (it also offered a haven for Silver Moon) and with the inclusion of a great little coffee shop provided one of the most interesting nooks on Charing Cross Road.
Best of all you can sit in the window listening to Thelonious Monk while sipping a soya latte, watching the axis of mediocrity that is Borders and Starbucks suck in souls across the road.
