Sister Ray Records Announces best of 2014 charts

18 November 2014 - Press release

Sister Ray Records, based in Berwick Street, Soho London and the recently opened vinyl only shop at Ace Hotel - Shoreditch have announced their highly respected best of 2014 staff chart and also their best-selling top twenty album releases of 2014 across all formats.

Topping the annual staff choice chart are Goat with their album “Commune”, owner Phil Barton says, “The Goat album has been far and away our most popular staff pick this year. If you like your swirling psychedelia with a catfight of vocals and guitars then put "Commune" on your must buy list. Failing that buy it anyway because we haven't had a customer yet who doesn't think it’s great.”

These charts give a snapshot of life at the record shop, Barton says, “This is what we do, we sell great music and truly hope that people enjoy and value our recommendations”.
