Record Store Day offers a sign of hope for businesses working on their pandemic rebound
CNN
July 17 marks the first of two Record Store Days being held this year and it offers a signal of hope for independent businesses trying to recover from the darkest days of the Covid-19 pandemic.

This Saturday, the second of two Record Store Days being held this year, offers a sign of hope for independent businesses trying to recover from some of the darkest days they have seen.More Related News
