Its time for the Black Friday 2013 RSD thread..........

So far no "must-haves" for me this year.. not yet at least. My wallet is thankful.


That Lee Perry is a good contender though, depending on whether or not any juicy mastering details get out.

 

I would like to see the four Black sabbath track not on 13 released on vinyl.

 

Yep, no must haves for me either. Not even any real wants. But I think the list has a long way to go yet.

 

I definitely want the Replacements, Kind of Blue and the Lee Scratch Perry. The Dylan, Doors and Nilsson are also contenders...oh heck and the Dead too...

 

Just an FYI, one of the majors and two of the larger indies haven't released their lists yet. More is to come.

 

I also keep going back to the Bull Moose website and looking at the BFRSD 2013 list...I might need those Paul Simon records. I might really need them.

 

Has a full list been posted yet ?

 

See 2 posts above yours.

 

I was excited to see that Rush 10" but I'm not crazy about that tune. Still...plenty of time left for many more things to be announced.

 

We have had Warner/ADA release their list. I'd consider UMG and Sony the other 2 "majors" that have yet to release a list, but feel free and counter why one of those wouldn't be a major.

We have had a list from URP distribution, but nothing from the last remaining one stop (at least to my knowledge). So who else are we waiting on?

 

i have been hearing about new Albini mix of Nirvana's In Utero to come out on 2x45 vinyl(I'm not talking about the one that just came out) not sure if it is true but Rolling Stone is reporting it here.

 

It's a bunch of "would be nice"s and "could do without"s I just don't see me listening to a doors RSD comp when I can pull out the regular albums, in (I'm assuming) better fidelity... I do like the artwork though, very clever.


I would have loved to put out something spectacular for everyone to buy this Black Friday. Or even last Black Friday. It's really tough though, basically being super independent and trying to work with major labels and major distribution channels. Hopefully I can get the ball rolling on something soon and put out something for RSD '14. And if I have any say in the matter, it'll end up being one of those "step on everyone's toes to get one on my shelf" type of releases.



Can't wait for the rest of the list. The anticipation is killing me!

Legacy Recordings Back To Black Friday 2013 releases include:

Bob Dylan - Side Tracks - 3 x 12" 200 gram LPs - numbered limited edition
An independent record store vinyl exclusive, Side Tracks (first made available as two CDs in the monumental Bob Dylan Complete Album Collection Vol. One, released November 5, 2013) is a career-spanning collection of official Bob Dylan recordings--including previously released non-album singles, tracks from Biograph and other compilations, songs from films and more--that have never appeared on one of the artist's formal albums.

Cheap Trick - The Classic Albums 1977-1979 - 5 x 12" 180 gram LPs - numbered limited edition
An independent record store vinyl exclusive, The Classic Albums 1977-1979 box collects the first five ground-breaking power-pop masterpieces from one of America's all-time great rock bands, Cheap Trick. First released within a breathtaking two-year creative peak period in the late 1970s, these classic titles-- Cheap Trick, In Color, Heaven Tonight, Live Budokan and Dream Police --have been newly remastered in 2013 from the original analog tapes and come packaged in original album artwork, housed in a newly-designed, numbered limited edition LP box.

Harry Nilsson - Rarities Collection - 12" 180 gram LP - numbered limited edition
An independent record store vinyl exclusive, these 12 rare Nilsson tracks have been especially selected for this release from The RCA Album Collection, a career-spanning 17 CD collection, and include demos, outtakes and other rarities.

Roy Orbison - The Monument Vinyl Box - 4 x 12" 180 gram LPs

These records are now joined by a newly-curated fourth LP, Oh! Pretty Woman - the "missing" Monument album masterpiece that could have, and should have been released as its title song, "Oh, Pretty Woman" was topping the charts in 1964.

Jimi Hendrix Experience - "Fire" b/w "Foxey Lady" - 7" single - Numbered Limited Edition
An independent record store vinyl exclusive, these two live tracks were performed by the Jimi Hendrix Experience at the May 1968 Miami Pop Festival and have been previously unavailable.

Uncle Tupelo - "I Wanna Be Your Dog" b/w "Commotion" - 7" vinyl single - Numbered Limited Edition
An independent record store vinyl exclusive, this vinyl 7" includes "I Wanna Be Your Dog," a cover of the Stooges punk standard and outtake from No Depression, on the A Side with a B Side premiering a previously unreleased studio outtake showcasing Uncle Tupelo rocking Credence Clearwater Revival's "Commotion" in a preview of the forthcoming Legacy Edition of No Depression.

Nas - "Halftime" - 12" Vinyl reproduction of 1992 original
Originally recorded for the Zebrahead soundtrack by an emerging American MC calling himself "Nasty Nas," this explosive debut, in the words of Vibe magazine, "created a niche that only Illmatic could fill." The single also launched the career of one of the most durable, provocative and poetic rappers in hip-hop history. This facsimile reproduction of the original 12" vinyl includes the full "Halftime" A-side (1. radio edit, 2. LP version. 3. LP version instrumental) and B-side (1. Butcher Remix 2. Butcher Mix instrumental). The Nas "Halftime" release provides a fitting overture for the upcoming 20th Anniversary of Illmatic in 2014 (#ILLMATIC20 /Coming 2014).

Miles Davis - Kind of Blue - 12" 180 gram LP - MONO - Numbered Edition
The top-selling jazz album of all time, the modality of Kind of Blue found its way into classical, rock, and pop becoming one of the most influential cultural touchstones of the last half of the 20th century and one of the most transcendent pieces of music ever recorded. Davis played trumpet sublime with his ensemble sextet featuring pianist Bill Evans, drummer Jimmy Cobb, bassist Paul Chambers, and saxophonists John Coltrane and Julian "Cannonball" Adderley with Wyton Kelly playing piano on "Freddy the Freeloader."

Miles Davis - Miles & Monk at Newport - 12" 180 gram LP - MONO - Numbered Edition

Miles Davis - Jazz Track - 12" 180 gram LP - MONO - Numbered Edition
A reissue of two underrated Miles Davis sessions on one mono LP; Side One is the Miles Davis Quintet's soundtrack for the French film L'Ascenseuer Pour l'Echafaud while highlights from the Miles Davis Sextet's session on May 26, 1958 (Davis' 32nd birthday).

Paul Simon - Paul Simon - 12" 180 gram LP - Numbered - includes download card

These editions were newly remastered by Clash guitarist Mick Jones and were included in the monumental Clash box set, Sound System, released September 2013.

Now in its sixth year, Record Store Day is an annual day-long celebration of record store culture taking place on the third Saturday in April. This past January, RSD announced the appointment of Jack White to the post of Record Store Day 2013 Ambassador.

 

You'll see more info trickle out this morning: Nirvana, some really cool soundtracks, The Stones, Omnivore's titles...

 

nothing of interest so far, not in love with anything the lips have done since yoshimi, live jimi 7'' isn't that thrilling, cake and X boxsets as well as the in utereo 45 mastered lp will be out of my budget, kind of blue mono sounds good but im not diehard into jazz, wipeout 7'' sounds kind of cool but it feels like I'd buy it just to buy something on black friday I may take a pass this year unless something better gets announced. Anything that looks appealing to me doesn't really seem justifiable at the price point I imagine they will be released at.

 

Thankfully for me, nothing worth lining up at f*** A.M. for yet.

 

Heard some mention of a RSD vinyl for Badfinger, given the media attention from "Breaking Bad" Finale using Single-mix of "Baby Blue". Apple was scheduling double-vinyl "Best of" Legacy of Badfinger for early 2012, maybe they will re-configure running order of Tracks and issue for RSD.

If anyone hears it announced or updates to RSD List of titles, please remind us.

 

Wasn't that just something someone on here said would be a great idea? Apple's distributor, Universal, released their list just now and it's not on there.


By the way, some of the new titles are
Gene Clark
Elvis Costello & The Roots
Lana Del Rey
John Denver & The Muppets pic disc
How the Grinch Stole Christmas soundtrack
Vince Guaraldi Linus & Lucy 7"
Ernie Kovaks Percy Dovetonsils pic sics
Nirvana - In Utero (rumored but now confirmed)
Rolling Stones
Townes Van Zandt 3LP outtakes & demos
Zabriskie Point soundtrack
Cake (confirmed)
Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds (confirmed)

There are more and we have details on most of them up at http://www.bullmoose.com/c/11771/record-store-day-black-friday-2013

 

Well, I usually avoid shopping on black friday, but not this year. Here's my list so far:

Miles Davis KoB mono
Nilsson rarities
the Van Dyke Parks 7"

 

Whoa. Etched vinyl Super Ape? Tull's Stand Up? A Rush 10" EP? I am so in.

 

The Nick Cave, Ladytron and Red Hot Chili Peppers are interesting me.... probably won't be able to get down under though!

 

Miles Davis mono for me. Possibly the Paul Simon LPs. Wasn't Clash's Hits Back comp supposed to be out on vinyl for RSD?

 

It came out this week on red vinyl. It's only available in stores that participate in Record Store Day, so maybe that's why you thought it wasn't out until Black Friday.

 

i guess i'm just poor or something...i see some stuff i like...like hte billy bragg and wilco mermaid avenue ones but at $36 apiece i just can't do it..

 

Ah! Thanks for the clarification. I'll be on the lookout locally...
