Top 5 Records, for anyone who’s seen High Fidelity, is the name of the indie record label that Rob Gordon creates in an effort to bring his life back on track. In essence, spirit and name, this web log of offbeat musical experience aims to follow in those footsteps.

I’d like to extend a warm handshake to the creators of this website. Well done sirs! Popularity explosion is lurking round the corner with an indecently eager smile.
All luck for your site, and I agree with every word about the Shakey Rays.
But it’s Rob Fleming, not Rob Gordon. 😉
In High Fidelity (the book), Rob Fleming is a British guy who eventually discovers an indie punk band. In the movie, Rob Gordon is an American who discovers an indie punk band and eventually starts Top Five Records. 🙂
Thanks so much for your wishes. Keep reading!
Serves me right for not looking that up before writing in. 😀
Nice work, keep it up.
