So, ‘Record Store Day’ is set for this Saturday, April 16th. Yep, this is a cool celebration of our classic record stores that we all grew up with. You can head to your local record stores here in the Peoria metro and purchase some amazing releases for 2016, as many artists have crafted specific albums for release for Saturday April 16th. There are also a bunch of reissues coming out, just think Metallica this year with ‘Kill em’ All’, and ‘Ride The Lightning.’ You can purchase vintage treasures, and strangely colored vinyl nation wide. This is one cool day of amazing vinyl being dropped for the masses.
Some of the unique releases this year include David Bowie and his 1966 early album, “I Dig Everything-The Pye Singles 1966”, where only 7,500 copies have been pressed. Wow! Cheap Trick is releasing their new abum on vinyl, classic rock legends The Doors are releasing more vintage live material, “Live At The Aquarius: The First Performance”, which is a double album release on vinyl that includes a recording of soundcheck! Bob Dylan, Justin Bieber, The Sex Pistols, the Monkee’s, are all coming out with vinyl releases for this year. So, head out to your favorite location, and support your local record stores in Peoria!
