GROOVILLA BOOKS · VOLUME TWO

The Grail Hunt: UK & Ireland

A Vinyl Lover’s Travel Guide. Updates and corrections to the first edition.

THE BOOK

Twenty cities, one road

The Grail Hunt: UK & Ireland is a travel guide for people who love music on vinyl. It covers twenty cities across England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland, with more than 200 record shops and a hundred records I love for what they say about these places. Every price in the book is a Discogs median, checked on the date printed on the page.

It is the second volume of the series. The first is The Grail Hunt: Europe, and the records of both live in the The Grail Hunt section of this site.

UPDATES AND CORRECTIONS

What changed after the first edition

Record shops open, move and close, and prices move with them. This is where I log every change to the first edition: the date, the city, the shop and what is different now.

A shop moved, closed or changed its hours?
