And music fan Natalie Sharp, 33, decided to pay tribute to some of the best by recreating the art on her face. She asked her Facebook friends for suggestions and finally drilled the 40-plus best suggestions down to eight. Natalie SharpMike Oldfield – Tubular BellsMike Oldfield – Tubular Bells Natalie said: "The hardest by far was Mike Oldfields – Tubular bells. Painting the straight lines of the bent silver bell over my face would only work If I continued to look straight into my handheld magnifying mirror.

In fact I barely used my brushes for King Crimson, I would just keep smudging it with my fingers." Natalie SharpPeter Gabriel – MeltPeter Gabriel – Melt The musician who uses the alter-ego Lone Taxidermist also works as a make-up artist, so thought Record Store Day seemed like a good way of merging both of her passions. Natalie, from east London, said: "One of the reasons why I love vinyl is because of its true long playing physical format. I decided to listen to each album in full from start to end over and over again until the face was complete." She added: "Every time the album finished I would have a glass of wine! But I was getting too drunk especially after Human League!"
