Record Store Day 2023

[Wicked Dreamer]

Managed to cop the Todd Rundgren record!

 

[tvham]

I’d probably buy it

me too

 

[djdavedk]

Stopped into Young Ones looking for the Weird Revolution reissue (nada) so I picked up the Ramones Pleasant Dreams demos album.

Managed to cop the Todd Rundgren record!

This one was a blind spot for me but I’m really digging it. Anything psych adjacent, especially in the early to mid 70s, is right up my alley.

 

[AndySlash]

my aunt gave me a bunch of her old records a few years back and that rundgren record was a real surprise discovery for me.

 

[AndySlash]

i really hope you're all putting in a vote for tracy chapman's new beginning.

i'll put in a guilty pleasure vote for journey's trial by fire.

I put in votes for her self-titled and Telling Stories. I might as well throw in New Beginning as well.

Hell, The Complete Tracy Chapman would be a box set I'd buy - especially if priced reasonably like John Prine's first four a few years back! But even if not I likely would.

Any reviews from those who purchased the Husker Du live RSD release?

 

[Matt M]

They are doing suggestions for future RSD titles!

I emailed Barsuk a while back asking about reissuing, they didn't have any concrete plans.

If you need a fun power poppy record about cricket, that Duckworth Lewis is fantastic!

And check out Nashville for Rouse, a classic

I bought that Josh Rouse xmas record a couple years ago when it was something like $6 on Amazon. We listen to to it every year - it's good.

Yep, same. Honestly I'll take a flyer on any xmas album that's less than $10

I’ve been looking but I haven’t found anything.

Any reviews from those who purchased the Husker Du live RSD release?

Probably overpriced, like all things RSD, but I like it. The quality isn’t fantastic - sounds like a cassette you bought at a bar show for your friend’s band. Maybe a little better. And I mean that in the best way possible. This is Dü on the cusp of becoming something. I really enjoy the set for exactly that reason. It’s not going to be for everyone, but for a fan, as a time capsule at a couple specific Minneapolis venues it’s pretty great. Again, price might be a turn off. But if you find this when someone is clearing RSD stock at a discount it’s worth giving it a shot.

Also it should be streaming in August(?) I believe if you want to check it out then.
