Retail giant Sainbury’s is the latest supermarket to begin selling vinyl records.
From Monday (March 21), the chain will start selling a limited range of LPs in 171 of its stores across the UK.
David Bowie, The Beatles, Nirvana, Adele, Amy Winehouse and Fleetwood Mac will be among the featured acts and artists.
The chain will also offer a Crosley Cruiser Turntable at a price of £80.
Pete Selby, Sainsbury’s head of Music and Books, said: ‘Vinyl is definitely experiencing a revival with demand growing stronger year on year.
‘It is our aim to make the vinyl experience easy and pleasurable for our customers who are ready to re-engage with a format that resonates with them on an emotional level.’
According to Sainsbury’s, more than 170 stores will mean it has the highest number of vinyl outlets in the UK.
Sainbury’s is the latest retailer to join the so-called ‘vinyl revival’ with Tesco unveiling a limited range in December 2015.
