A new shop which buys and sells vinyl records has opened in the basement of Bookcase at 268 Chiswick High Road.

Underground Vinyl has an eclectic selection of music including classical and pop with most of the stock second hand.

The store appears to have become immediately popular. Bookcase tweeted, "The love of vinyl is certainly alive and kicking in Chiswick! #UndergroundVinyl had a cracking opening weekend and it was lovely to meet so many passionate music lovers! Thanks to everyone who came by to wish us well and/or peruse our books & records!"

The shop cleared out its lower floor which was previously used for storage to make space for the new shop.

Bookcase has been trading at the same location since 26 May 1993 making it one of the longest surviving business in the centre of town and one of a dwindling band of non-chain stores in the heart of Chiswick.
