Fans queue up for The View to sign their vinyl

The 10th annual celebration of records saw around 80 people descend on Ferry store

Around 80 people queued around the block to get their hands on special vinyls released on Record Store Day in Broughty Ferry.

Members of Dundee indie four-piece The View signed a limited 10th anniversary vinyl re-release of their debut album, Hats Off To The Buskers, as part of the event.

The annual Record Store Day, now also in its 10th year, attracts hundreds of music fans across the country with exclusive releases and rare albums.

Record Store Day takes place in shops across the world, and there are strict rules imposed on retailers taking part.

This year saw singles from The Beatles, Pink Floyd and a special picture disk of Fawlty Towers being re-released.

The View’s album was originally released via 1965 Records on January 22 2007 and hit the number one spot in the UK charts on January 28 2007, leading to a Mercury Prize nomination that year.

Lead singer and frontman Kyle Falconer said the band enjoyed being part of the nationwide celebration of vinyl.

“It’s fun,” he said.

“When we first got involved we released a cover song. I think that was 2010 or 2011.

“We have always done something for it.

“There are bands that don’t go for 10 years, so to get there is a major thing. We have done so much, we didn’t even realise it had been 10 years.

“We feel the same and do the same as we did at the start.”

Since their debut, the band have gone on to release five albums in total, 2015’s Ropewalk being their most recent release, produced by The Strokes’ Albert Hammond Jr. and Gus Oberg.

Members of the band are now working on their own individual projects, but Kyle said they would definitely return as a group to release more music together in the future.
