Black Friday Record Store Day 2015

Only interested in the Zombies Dbl. LP so far.

 

The NIN set looks cool. Also, is Love and Mercy only on vinyl? I was hoping for a CD at some point, although not as an RSD exclusive.

EDIT: Nevermind. Looks like the Love and Mercy CD is coming Sept. 18, the same week as the DVD release.

 

Nothing that interests me

 

I don't even collect the Barfko-Swill custom Zappa archival stuff, but that's only because I deplore dealing with them, Gail Zappa, and their insane shipping costs; that said, I'll buy the Zappa just because it'll be there in front of me and I can avoid all the nonsense I just listed!

 

Here's a timeline I found. Looks like we'll get the official list on October 27. (http://a2im.org/news/record-store-day-black-friday-2015-timeline/)

June 23rd: Details on all RSD Black Friday titles are presented for approval.

July 14th: The final list of Black Friday titles/quantities are locked in.

August 12th: All artwork is due. Both high res and low res images are emailed to [RSD executives' email addresses deleted]

September 1st: All RSD/Black Friday products must be in production; spreadsheet for all titles included in the Black Friday campaign are provided.

October 23rd: RSD/Black Friday product ships to onestops, approved distributors, and international partners.

October 27th: RSD releases the official list to the public. (Any artists wishing to announce first should do so prior to October 27.)

November 27th: Participating RSD stores in the USA/Canada and Europe celebrate Black Friday.

 

Early 2016 will see a release of a posthumous S7B album featuring all the material Benjamin was working on when he was sick. There's a few non-album tracks that are ot there that really need to compiled in a single spot and be widely available.

 

Yeah his body of work is pretty big and not much of it is readily available. I'd like to have the Secret Machines albums as well as his records with Tripping Daisy and UFOFU, not to mention S7B.

 

I'm in for the Zappa. The NIN looks cool, but not $112 cool. Looking forward to the full list, I'm sure there will be much more to buy.

 

Looking forward to the Kinks singles and the Zombies BBC sessions. Hoping the updated list contains a few more selections from the '90s.

 

Bowie always puts out something for these days. I hope it'll be a reissue of the Holy Holy 45 to tie in with the box set...

 

RSD site says "Earthling" on "translucent green vinyl."

 

Lots of cool stuff so far - Spoon, Kinks, Les Paul, Get Up Kids, Zombies...

 

Hoping to hear Blind Melon's Soup vinyl reissue as an offering.

 

Was very excited to learn yesterday that The Cardigans' Long Gone Before Daylight is getting a release for Black Friday.

 

Nothing on this list has me too excited, but if things go as usual I expect I'll end up with one or two of them anyway.

 

Love & Mercy and The Zombies BBC Sessions are must-have items in this household. (Will prolly get the Les Paul Christmas too!)

 

• 3 x 10” Quintet, The (Charlie Parker/Dizzy Gillespie/Bud Powell/Max Roach/Charles Mingus) - Jazz At Massey Hall: The 10'' LP Collection [3x10'' Box Set] (extensive book with rare photos, indie-exclusive) 73

 

That is exciting news!!

 

Any other 'Leaks'?

 

Bowie's Outside is coming out on double vinyl for the first time in its entirety (i.e. not the abridged version that's been available for years).

 

What about the 12" single "Say Say Say" by McCartney/Jackson?

 

I'll likely get the 12" Bo Rhap.

 

Bo Rhap. My goodness.

 

That NIN would have been cool to the 22 year old me. Now, not so much.

 

Some more leaks I guess. I don't know why the currency is in euros though.

Nothing for me. Jeez at some of those prices if they're true.

I think I'm just going to get the Love and Mercy soundtrack after Black Friday. I can't imagine it will be highly sought after.
