Which, in case you don’t know, “is the one day that all of the independently owned record stores come together with artists to celebrate the art of music.”

I’ll endeavour to pop into my favourite local indie music store, Swordfish Records, at some point later today and I might even try to observe a minute’s silence for its fallen comrades in arms, like Frank’s Wild Records and the Plastic Factory.

You can find the Record Store Day site here.
