Richard Hawley is at number one on the UK Record Store Chart with his new album Further.

It’s just ahead of another new entry, Pip Blom’s debut Boat, while the reissues of Doves’ first three studio albums all hit the Top 20, led by Lost Souls at #4.

It was in 2012 when the Official Charts Company began acknowledging the comeback of vinyl which first started over a decade ago with Record Store Day by publishing a weekly Record Store Chart compiled from the best selling albums at 100 of Britain’s leading independent music shops.
