I am a massive fan of this style of documentary and film making and this particular project holds much relevance to me due to my sheer love and devotion of vinyl recordings and record shops.

For me this is a truly worthwhile project which is a pleasure to support and I look forward to the outcome.

I find the way in which Jeanie has pushed to raise funds to make this happen very inspiring and encouraging and I wish her and all involved all the very best.

As the great Theo Parrish once said ‘If it ain’t on vinyl, it ain’t worth shit!’

The first and last records I bought:
First:The debut album from Bros entitled push on 12″ vinyl. Purchased from Asda aged 6.

Last: Talking Heads – This Must Be The Place on 7″ vinyl purchased from my favourite record store, X Records in Bolton (I believe Bolton’s last remaining record shop) for £1. Aged 28

Synopsis

Glimmer Films in association with Sideshow present a film by Jeanie Finlay; SOUND IT OUT.

Over the last five years an independent record shop has closed in the UK every three days.

SOUND IT OUT is a documentary portrait of the very last surviving vinyl record shop in Teesside, North East England.

A cultural haven in one of the most deprived areas in the UK, SOUND IT OUT documents a place that is thriving against the odds and the local community that keeps it alive. Directed by Jeanie Finlay who grew up three miles from the shop.

A distinctive, funny and intimate film about men, the North and the irreplaceable role music plays in our lives.

High Fidelity with a Northern Accent.
