This Saturday, April 12, music lovers and collectors can score some truly rare vinyls at their favorite independent record stores across the U.S. as part of Record Store Day.
Several San Diego shops have signed the Record Store Day Pledge, committing to sell RSD exclusives in-store only, and only on the day of the event. More than just a day of exclusive vinyl drops, Record Store Day is a celebration of the indie record shops that keep music culture spinning all year long.
One highlight from this year’s release includes a picture disc version of Fleetwood Mac’s iconic 1975 self-titled album, released in honor of its 50th anniversary. Limited to just 6,475 copies, the release includes hits like “Rhiannon,” “Landslide,” and “Say You Love Me,” with two sides of custom artwork.
