Bristol marks Record Store Day 2024 this weekend, following last year’s ‘biggest ever’ turnout.
Independent record outlet Rough Trade stages the yearly event, which brings with it hours-long queues.
The day “champions a rich and diverse collection of releases and celebrating the continued importance of independent record stores”.
Music-heads must reserve the records they want to buy in line: this year’s offer includes a limited edition version of Blur’s Parklife and a picture disc set of the ‘Doctor Who’ soundtrack from its third ever series back in 1964.
Local record collectors and business owners spoke to Bower News about the enduring love for vinyl.
