Willen Hospice Music Shop

Willen Hospice’s independent record shop, Off The Record MK, will be hosting

a highly anticipated celebration of vinyl culture on Saturday 12 April as part of

national Record Store Day 2025.

Following the phenomenal success of last year’s event, the Off The Record MK team

are thrilled to announce that they have secured an even wider array of limited-edition

and exclusive new releases this year. Whether you're a seasoned vinyl collector or

just starting out, this is your chance to get your hands on rare and special editions

that aren’t available anywhere else.

Located in Midsummer Place in Milton Keynes, Off The Record MK will be opening

at 8am on Saturday 12 April, for what promises to be an unforgettable day of vinyl

hunting. Last year’s event saw crowds forming early, so music lovers are advised to

arrive as soon as the doors open for first dibs on the hottest releases! To make sure

everyone has plenty of time to browse and enjoy the experience, the store will stay

open until 7pm.

Just a few of the albums available on the day will be Queen – De Lane Lea Demos,

David Bowie – Ready, Set, Go!, David Gilmour – Between Two Points, and Public

Image – First Issue (with an exclusive US mix).

Off The Record MK has been a hub for music fans since it opened in 2022. Celebrity

visitors have included TV chef, presenter and author Nadiya Hussain, whose

husband even picked up a guitar in-store.

Leila Blaize-Smith, Commercial Manager for Willen Hospice’s shops, says: “A

heartfelt thank you must go to the incredible team at Off The Record MK, who have

helped make this event possible through their hard work, and who have fostered a

vibrant and supportive music community. Their dedication is what makes Record

Store Day at Off The Record MK so special, and we’re ready to make this year the

best one yet!”
