Behind the Counter With Ian Rankin

£54.99

Released: 22nd November 2024. As a longtime vinyl enthusiast who has always dreamed of working in record shops, Rankin's curation is inspired by some of the first singles he ever bought and songs which have inspired titles of his best-selling novels - Jackie Leven's 'Another Man's Rain' (which became 'Another Man's Grave') and The Cure's 'The Hanging Garden'. 'I still haunt record shops and play vinyl and I still compose playlists, just in case the chance of working behind the counter arrives.' Rankin says. 'Here's some of what you'd be hearing if you pushed open the door and walked into my emporium, tunes I never tire of listening to'.
