Heathen Chemistry Records in Fareham saw more than 100 people waiting outside ahead of its 8am opening on Saturday, April 18, with many people having queued overnight.
The first in line was 60-year-old David Stubbs, who arrived at 4.30am on Friday, April 17 and spent more than 24 hours in the queue.
David said: “It was a lot of fun with everyone involved and sleeping is always a challenge on the streets, but it was a very sociable experience with great friends.
“I’ve been here 28 hours in total and it was a bit of a challenge, all part of the experience.”
He spent more than £600 on 15 albums, including The Cult and Xmal Deutschland, to add to his already 2000 strong collection that he keeps in his attic that he turned into his music room.
Other fans, including 21-year-old Katie Archer and 45-year-old Damon Giles, camped overnight in a tent hoping to get a copy of Pavement and Talking Heads records.
Jacob Dennis, who works in the record shop, said: “We do it every year, the queue has always been there.
“We have someone stay in the shop overnight to basically look after the people queuing overnight, so they can use the bathroom and things like that in the shop.
“Every year they get earlier and earlier, it’s just really nice to see that people can be so passionate about it.
“I mean, this is the ninth year we have done it and every year the queue is bigger and longer and we get more new people coming in.”
Jacob said some of the most popular records at the shop this year include albums by Taylor Swift, Status Quo and The Cure.
The first official Record Store Day took place on April 19th, 2008, and today it is celebrated by thousands of record shops.
Special vinyl releases are made exclusively for the day and many shops and cities host artist performances and events to mark the occasion.
