When Tom told me that Sound It Out was going to be the subject of a documentary I thought it was a fantastic opportunity to show that independent music retailing, although not as prevalent as it was say 20 or 30 years ago, certainly isn’t extinct on Teesside yet, and hopefully with the continued support of music-loving patrons, and projects such as yours, Mr Butchart’s shop will continue to exist well into the future. That’s why I wanted to help fund this project. That and the fact that I’m on the trailer for the documentary!
I remember with great fondness the record shops of my youth on Teesside, and I always look forward to my weekly browse through Sound It Out’s vinyl racks. Its like being 15 again!
The first and last records I bought:
First: ‘Dirk Wears White Sox’ by Adam and the Ants in 1979, and the
Last: ‘Ten Again’ by Belle Gonzalez and Russ Loader from 1964, yesterday…
