As he stands amidst rows upon rows of vinyl records, it becomes evident that Ray's passion for music extends far beyond the ordinary. What makes Ray's collection truly extraordinary is its focus on famous regional music hall stars, whose recordings have become rare gems with the passage of time. So old are these cherished pieces that Ray has embarked on a quest to find antique record players and phonographs capable of playing them. It is through these vintage devices that he breathes life into forgotten melodies, allowing their timeless charm to resonate once more.
