record store day

[dyecraig]

anyone make it?
soundgarden in bmore had all the booty - i was about 40 back in an epic line.
managed to get the fela, rodriquez, sharon jones/budos and stones vinyl.
strummer, waits and beasties long gone.
fun way to spend a morning w/like-minded record fanatics - everyone was chill and the fact that you were only allowed to purchase one copy of any item made it less stressful when you got to the entrance. 
cool free stuff, too.

i picked up the flaming lips dark side and the fela kuti 10".

had the rodriguez in my hands but i passed on it..

probably should have picked up the strummer streetcore.. oh well..

the one item i wanted that i could not find was the stones 45

Was first in line at Crooked Beat.  Biggest disappointment was they ended up not getting in any copies of The Hold Steady, and a copy of Global A-Go Go didn't make it into my stuff (Went back today, and they only got in about 5 copies or so.)  They kept everything pretty well organized though taking care of customers two at a time.  Still managed to buy 30 or so things...

The list for the next RSD is out

Some great stuff

The Prine concert.. Jonathan Richman..Allmans..Dr John...Aretha..Petty (surely not an exclusive)... Replacements... these live dead concerts are great but you have to be a masochist to buy them.. surely at least $100 and you will have to spend day getting up to turn records

[hutch]

But I don’t see any one item that I absolutely must have... maybe the UK list will have that....

[StoneTheCrow]

Weak list but damn if there isn't one item I've gotta have. Not getting up at 4am to hang out with vinyl nerds, tho.

Replaced my Toots record Funky Kingston which disappeared in college many years ago.  May he rest in peace...

[Starsky]

Total classic…one of my favorites…I put it up against any record….. I got Toots to sign mine from the stage at the 930!


It is of course a compilation of hits repackaged and I believe tweaked by Island Records to try to break him in the UK/US

Pearl Jam Record Store Day 2023 Release

Following the 25th anniversary of Yield, Pearl Jam’s Give Way will be released as a part of Record Store Day 2023. This gatefold double LP comes from a live performance in Melbourne, Australia on March 5th, 1998. The legendary Give Way will be released for the first time ever. The 17-track album includes live versions of “Given To Fly,” “Faithfull,” and “Do The Evolution”.

Give Way will also be available on CD, a version of which was initially intended to be given out as a promotional item with each purchase of Single Video Theory in 1998. This never saw the light of day aside from an extremely limited amount which have resurfaced over the years...until now. The title Give Way is a nod to the Australian counterpart to the Yield sign of the United States. 

The Give Way Vinyl LP and CD will be available for purchase at your local indie record shop beginning Saturday, April 22nd. Look for an indie record store near you!

These late hours once he puts the kids in bed and sits on the couch streaming some series is when Sweetcell does most of his best work here. Real hard hitting posts one after the other. Since we lost Walky - was he ever even back…DDid I spook him? Too much too soon?- I have come to appreciate his rapid fire posts , particularly those about a city thousands of miles away whose concert listings he knows better than anyone this side of Yada ;who won’t share dates or venues leading to a lot of cluster fucks

Thank you sir!!

[sweetcell]

honored, and my pleasure... my on-going tribute to the city/region where i truly and fully fell in love with live music.
