THE DIARY OF A RECORD SHOP
MUSIC
It isn’t easy being an Englishman in France, but my life is very rich, full of music, language and sunshine. My name is Ian, I run a record shop, Verdon Records, in the small village of Moustiers Sainte-Marie, tucked away in the corner of Provence, the Gorges de Verdon. I have decided to keep an audio diary, with a little help from my family, friends and customers, so I can one day write my magnificent opus, an ode to the romance of running a record shop.

A new season with new ideas and projects as spring is heralded in, inspiring the gang. Jon and Scott surprise with a strange find and a lack of pants. Hector falls in love with Milky Ways, whilst Anna and Baz have big ideas for Moustiers. Ian and Jo paint things and Daisy sets off on her walk across land and sea. Nicolas tries his best to understand the difference between donkeys and small things and a new stranger in town trying to escape his past. It’s all there plus some spine tingling music.
