Other shops including Spiral Archive and Vintage Retreat will be holding sales and there will be a record fair also at the Lamplighter.

Thee Telepaths will be playing at Spun Out in the afternoon with DJs playing throughout the day at both shops.

Chris Kent from Spun Out, pictured with Dawn Kent and some of this year’s releases, said: “The whole comradeship of Record Store Day is great.

“Record Store Day is really important to us and it does help build our customer base for the following year and helps the reputation of the shop.”
