Save your pennies, little readers, 'cause you've got just one week until Record Store Day.
Next Satuday, April 20, independent record stores around the world will offer dozens of unique, Record Store Day-exclusive releases from different artists. (These exclusives are available first come, first serve, they are not available online, and each record is limited to one per person.) This means that our own dear Amoeba and Rasputin will be celebrating, too. While both stores are planning RSD shindigs, from what we can tell Amoeba will be the one really rocking it, with a giveaway contest, 25% off all in-store turntables and the full line of RSD exclusives. Which, have we mentioned? include: Best Coast, Big Star, Black Lips/Icky Blossoms, David Bowie, Nick Cave, Cure, Miles Davis, Brian Eno w/ Grizzly Bear, Taj Mahal, MGMT, Lee Scratch Perry and oh my god the list is really long. So GET READY. Are you ready? And, may we say, just as a little addendum: Record Store Day is a little chance for your favorite record store to love you back, and for you to show a little love. Unlike Mother's Day, you should love your record store EVERY day, not just next Saturday. (Did you know? You digital shoppers can download albums right here and still show Amoeba your love.)
