Sacred Paws take us on a tour of Glasgow’s much-loved record shops.

Sacred Paws take us on a tour of Glasgow’s much-loved record shops, shining a light on the staff and customers who call them home.

We’re celebrating Record Store Day by digging deep into the world of vinyl with this five-part podcast series, which is our love letter to record shops, their staff and their loyal customers. In each episode, we’re joined by a trusted guide who takes us on a unique guided tour of their hometown,  meeting the legendary characters who keep record stores alive and play such an important – and often underrated – role in UK Music. In this episode, Sacred Paws celebrate the community of Glasgow, visiting Monorail, Blitzkrieg Shop, Mixed-Up and Glasgow's very own reggae appointment-only store, Raggamuffin. In other episodes, Enola Gay discover the diverse lineage of Belfast, Graham Massey takes us on a heady trip round Manchester, Yard Act get in amongst the racks in Leeds, and Gruff Rhys ambles around Cardiff.
