Won't it be fun ??

Maybe it'll be snowing like it is here today .

Well, it kind of is fun standing around talking to the like minded geeks...everybody's got their 4"x6" scrap of paper that contains their 'shopping list', and everyone's comparing notes.

OK, you're right...not so bad. I'll bring an umbrella this year!

This is a cool Record Store Day exclusive:

The third album from the late Alex Chilton's influential '70s rockers—commonly known simply as "Third"—is getting reissued on limited-edition vinyl by Omnivore Records, with a cool twist: Five copies of the album's original test pressings, signed by surviving Big Star member Jody Stephens, will be inserted at random into five of the 2,000 copies available worldwide.

Coolest items:

1. Good Vibrations on a 78 rpm vinyl single.
2. The Grateful Dead's debut album in mono.
3. Riders On The Storm mono/stereo single

How do we know that Brown Sugar is being backed with anything? The list I printed off on Friday doesn't list any B-Side.....

This listing says it's a reproduction of the original 3-track ep with picture sleeve:

Man...I hate this. Another HAVE TO HAVE, which will have me lining up in the morning rain in about 3 weeks, waiting for the store to open.

Which one?
BTW, I can't see anything about the Rolling Stones although I know there is a Stones' item, which I will get

Thanks Glam!!

Just so I know whether or not my Record Store Day Rolling Stones items are intact, was last year's Plundered My Soul the first 45" of theirs available on Record Store Day, or had there been others previously that I wasn't aware of?

thanks!

Some of these are already popping up on ebay . I asked one seller what his numbered release was and was told 5,181 , so this Limited Edition of 5,000 may be a false rumor as it was last year with PMS .

I'm still gonna get one though !!

I shall go down to the shop in Chatham which is participating.

The sad thing is that there are always lots of c**ts in the queue that are simply buying copies to put up on ebay a week or so later to make money. No real interest in music , A bit like some of those people queing for a signed copy of Keith's book.

The only local independent record store here in upstate NY is rather lacking in selections for RSD as I found out last year, which was the first year in which I participated for the PMS 45" of course. So this year, I took to finding another record store in another state, submitted my wishlist and I should be hearing from them rather soon this morning as to what on my list I will be able to get.

I remember being so mad last year because I asked the guy if he was getting PMS and the Bruce record. He said yes, and then I asked if he could put 1 of each aside for me. He said that he didn't do that. I was down there standing in line a 1/2 hour prior to the store opening (again it's a 1-man shop, small area - only 4 other people there), and once I got in, I grabbed the ONLY copy of PMS and there were no copies of Bruce's record. Then while listening to a woman ask the owner if he had the Bruce record, this other guy walks up (apparently knew the guy well), and asks if he's got it for him. The owner then produces the lone copy of Bruce's record from under the counter, hands it to the guy, and says to the woman, see this is why I hate holding things.

So, this year, I'm spurning the local shop in hopes of getting more of the items on my list, namely the BS 45" and the Hendrix CDs!!!

Say, did Bruce Springsteen have a special release for the initial 2008 RSD?

I just called my store...I will have my copies of Brown Sugar...no problem.
So, what else should I get if possible? ACDC, Jimi Hendrix,...?

Jimi's single looks interesting. One of the tunes is suppose to be un-released. I think the AC/DC material has already been released. I wish The Stones 45 would be colored vinyl, but it's probably black. Sometimes it's tough being a Stones fan, ha-ha.

I can't believe nobody noticed this blatant spelling error on the rear sleeve of the Springsteen RSD 10":

It's srange indeed that they didn't notice that!

Yes...it appears to be strictly numbered to the number of people that purchase them, and then some!

I got my "Brown Sugar" ep today! Nice, solid picture sleeve, heavy vinyl, all good!

I prefer the term "maxi-single". Elton John released a single like that. Two songs on the B-side. They were really short though, like 2:50 and 1:50.

We have it here in Sweden too I've learned by now...a couple of second hand record shops have live-bands and stuff tomorrow..and also some extra for the record-buyers..and I'm out of financial resources..

The AC/DC stuff is from their upcoming DVD/CD release....So as of now, it is not yet available. They are live tracks recorded from their most recent tour.

Good news for the AC/DC single. I'll buy it then. Besides Brwon Sugar and Jimi Hendrix's single I'm hoping to score Joan Jetts album on clear vinyl.

I'm covering the Foo Fighters in store here in So Cal

So, who has the highest number? I have 5963 out of 5000

Oohh I can go much higher - mine is no. 7985 out 5000!

Grabbed the Ac/dc single and the Springsteen 10" - I'm a sucker for this stuff. Depressing to see so much up on Ebay already tho.

No. In 2009 he released a song of Working on adream backed with the live track A night with the Jersey devil

Could somebody help me with the Ryan Adams double 7". I won´t get it here in Austria?

Correct - the A-side of that 7" single was "What Love Can Do" ("A Night With The Jersey Devil" is a studio recording though, not a live track). However, in 2008, one Springsteen cut ("Girls In Their Summer Clothes" from the "Magic" album) was featured on a Various Artists "Record Store Day" vinyl compilation LP:
