Record Store Day 2020 - "RSD Drops" Aug 29/Sep 26/Oct 24

 

No mention of the Rolling Stones Let it Bleed collector's edition in any of the RSD drop dates. Anyone have information on that one? I know it will be hard to get at 900 total copies. I'm interested and wondering how they are going to sell those now. Clearly it has dropped out of the RSD platform.

 

Seems like it will be released on June 20

How many of you are getting the Baby Shark 7” ?

 

If this is true it will be a big battle to get one and prices will rise to extreme hights.

 

If a title is a 'regional focus release', how will you know where it will be available to purchase?

 

The only release i'm like 1% interested in is Gorillaz - G-Sides. Rest ? Nah...

 

Yeah... not sure how that works either, mainly because every Regional focus release has been available (at least those I want) at my local store. So I'm not sure how it is decided how they distribute these or why they are indicated as such.

 

So... UGH. All the items I wanted originally are now evenly split up between all 3 Drops ; 8+ items each drop. I really am not, at the current time, interested in standing in a line for hours before the store opens during this pandemic (assuming the store I go to is open by then - he has been temporarily closed since 3/19). Who knows with everything re-opening slowly if the virus doesn't spike again come Aug/Sept/Oct, etc.

I understand that people can stand 6ft+ apart and wear masks. But doing so for 4 or more hours (generally how early I get to the store I shop at before it opens) to ensure I get all my wants is not too appealing (and to have to do it 3 months in a row!). In Aug and Sept it will most likely be warm out (good), but wearing a mask for that period of time in the heat can't be comfortable. Just wearing a mask for 1 hour at the supermarket is stifling. In addition, how can we be sure everyone obeys social distancing rules before a store opens without anyone taking charge of the situation (i.e., store owner).

I really hope the rules are relaxed in such a way to allow loyal customers of a specific store to be able to shop in methods different from a regular RSD - and still do so to be able to get the best chance of getting 100% fulfillment of wants.

 

This guy.

 

Surely there's going to be regular vinyl version of Bloodflowers to come after the RSD picture disc drop.

 

Can’t see anything I fancy.

 

I’ll be picking up that Ravi Shankar release, might get that Instant Karma single too. Not interested in much else.

 

I’m glad that everything I want is “dropping” on the same day

 

I'm glad that mine is split up. Gonna be an expensive proposition, especially since I just noticed that Dirty Three release of Ocean Songs.

 

Not doing it this year. If there's anything I want bad enough, I'll just buy it on Ebay a month later, after the prices drop back to retail.

For me, RSD is about the fun as much as hunting for exclusives. With COVID controls, it's no fun.

 

I can’t see Gary Numan on the list any more.

 

Although Gary Numan with The Skaparis Orchestra - When the Sky Came Down (Live at The Bridgewater Hall - Manchester) - LPx3 – Rough Trade

 

Thanks, I was wondering this also.

 

The RSD Drop is working VERY well for me. I'm typically forced to leave some items behind to avoid dropping too much money at once. Last year, I had my hands on the Patsy Cline set colored vinyl. I really wanted it but not as bad as other items. That is now very expensive and hard to find for sale.
I can spend $70 per month for 3 consecutive months and get what I'm wanting. The exception being that Let it Bleed collector edition. But that works out well too. Because it's being sold in June, I can squeeze that in as well. That's assuming I get a shot at one.

 

Awesome! Less competition for me.

This is the worst list ever for me, as there's over 20 wants for me, many of which are "must haves". Glad it's split up over 3 months, because hunting for and buying and then listening to all that at once would be pretty hard.

 

I might try to get the 2 Bowie cd sets.

 

So many great ones:

Roxy Music debut
Philip Glass box
Wipers

 

Booorrrrinng...........One release of interest, The Pineapple Thief.

 

The Miles Davis BITCHES BREW outtakes on vinyl are a must
