Record Store Day 2017

Post by chaptertwentyone »

The list should be dropping this upcoming week or maybe the following.
EDIT: According to the RSD portion of Bull Moose's site it'll be dropping on or around March 21st.
Does anyone still give a shit about these things outside of TMR's releases?
I don't think I cared about a single damn thing on either of the 2016 lists.
Overpriced and uninspired.
Will this year be different?
We'll see, we'll see.
Any rumored releases you're looking forward to?

I have tracked down a bunch over the years. RSDBF 2016 had a few goodies. Gary Clark Jr., Bob and Doug Mckenzie and the Racs of course...

Looking forward to the list this year

I didn't even try to get the racs 7" since I have the original. It will be hard to convince myself to grab icky thump considering I have it on LP, cd, thumb drive and the Mono LP already.

Yeah, an Icky Thump reissue is sort of unnecessary, but forthcoming I'm sure. I wish they'd do something interesting with this one like with the alternate cover and back cover for GBMS. Granted that was a different situation since it hadn't been commerically available, but I wish they'd take some liberties to shake it up a bit.

I passed on the Racs single because I figured they'd be easy to come by. Fingers crossed for some Pujol this time around. Last year was the first time he's sat out in a few years.

To the point about record store day becoming uninspired and expensive...I read an article from somewhere last year (can't recall the source), but apparently whoever organizes it said they were embarrassed with the direction it was going of gimmicks and cash grabs and wanted to focus future releases on stuff people would buy on plain, black vinyl...here's to hoping

Yeah!
That's the article I was referencing!
I'll see if I can't find it.

Oddly enough, Jack is taking total advantage of that cash grab gimmick releases...haha

I agree though...not a lot of new music or anything of interest. For me, I am excited for a release like the Coheed album. This is it's first time it's been released on vinyl. It's not new music, but new to vinyl. That kind of shit I can live with.....not 40 singles released on blue vinyl just to make some extra cash.

Bit disappointed in Neil Young. He used to put out box sets of his archives on RSD. He hasn't done it the past few years.. That was also something to look forward to..

Hopefully there are a few more additions to the list that has already been posted above.

There are a few things on the list above that I really want, but don't absolutely NEED.
