Record Store Day

I was going to buy it if it was under $40, so I guess it's nice to know I would have got it if I could have?

This is interesting...

Boards of Canada Released a Mysterious 12" on Record Store Day | News | Pitchfork

 

[bono_212]

Oh, this could be fun.

 

[Imperor]

Listening to Elephant for the first time right now, and what a treat it is. Truly one of the formative albums of me falling in love with music. The years of holding out on buying it have paid off, cause I'm digging the red/black split.

 

[cobl04]

When you first mentioned Elephant I assumed there was a Tame Impala 7"

 

[Danny Boy]

I found out Nick Drake comes with a 24/96 download, so I popped back into my local shop today to pick it up. I snatched a copy of The Stars (Are Out Tonight) as well. I always end up spending more on RSD than I had planned to.

Listen: Two More Boards of Canada Snippets Air on BBC and NPR | News | Pitchfork

 

[LemonMelon]

One of my most anticipated "reunions" for sure.

 

[monkeyskin]

No Husker Du or Drive OST anywhere to be found, so I got the new Bowie 7" as a compromise.

As RSD now counts as my birthday gift, I splurged on a crate digging marathon throughout the day. Prizes include:

The Cure - Japanese Whispers
Siouxsie and the Banshees - The Scream
Janis Joplin - Pearl
The Replacements - Pleased to Meet Me
The Libertines - Up the Bracket
Bob Dylan - Highway 61 Revisited
CHVRCHES - Recover EP

Niiiice! I need to actually go to Chicago some day with no other goal in mind but to hit a few record stores. Every time I go to Reckless, I'm there for some other reason and am always rushed as a result.

 

[Danny Boy]

Apparently this is a thing...

10" vinyl, 11/29.

 

[u2popmofo]

The greatest song of our generation!!!!!!!

 

[Imperor]

lol alright Sade.

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

Also for record store day...

Glen Hansard w/ Eddie Vedder and Jake Clemons

 

[Danny Boy]

Well, dammit. I had planned on sleeping in for Black Friday this year.

 

[bono_212]

Apparently this is a thing...

10" vinyl, 11/29.

What did I tell you all!

I hate, hate, hate Black Friday RSD.

 

[Danny Boy]

Second in line. Still over an hour to go.

Going for U2, Nick Cave Live, Flaming Lips/Tame Impala split.

No Shearwater / Low?

 

[Danny Boy]

No Shearwater / Low?

Actually preordered that one from Boomkat. It already shipped yesterday.

 

[u2popmofo]

Nice. I want a number of these, but have no way to listen to them. Hopefully some are released digitally in the future.

 

[powerhour24]

My haul, wanted a few others and thought about going to a store that was opening after, but I have a symphony performance to go to soon and I already spent like $150:

-U2
-Bob Dylan
-Nirvana "In Utero" 2013 Mix
-Duran Duran
-Rolling Stones
-Jimi Hendrix

 

[powerhour24]

I wasn't surprised not to find it, but the store said they only received a single copy of the Nick Cave, although I just remembered now that I'm home that there was also a limited CD made of it to, didn't ask about that though. Oh well.

 

[iron yuppie]

The only thing I really want is In Utero. Hopefully it will still be around when I manage to get to the store.

 

[Danny Boy]

I only bought U2 and Nick Cave. The Nick Cave vinyl is nice; double LP with a heavy gatefold sleeve. Comes with a download code.

My shop only received two copies of In Utero, iYup, and people were clamoring for them.

 

[Danny Boy]

Dear Nick Cave,

If I pay full price for an album on vinyl, please provide better than 192 kbps MP3 for the download.

 

[Danny Boy]

I'm famous. (I'm in the green jacket, second in line.)

 

[martha]

I see three green jackets.


Thanks for the clarification.

 

[martha]

With the hat?
Or the cap?

 

[Danny Boy]

Maroon cap. I'm watching through the window to see what bin they put the Nick Cave album in.

 

[martha]

I was hoping you weren't the guy in red pants.
