Record Store Day 2018 Exclusives Coming April 21
Record Store Day 2018 Ambassadors Run The Jewels and 10-time GRAMMY Award winner Taylor Swift are among those prepping special RSD2018 releases to make April 21 a day vinyl collectors and music lovers will remember. Exclusives and first releases include RTJ's "Stay Gold" Collector's Edition 12" single and colored-vinyl resissues of Swift's self-titled 2006 debut and her two multiple GRAMMY winning albums, 2008's Fearless and 2014's 1989.
Other first releases from multiple GRAMMY winners this year include Common, Ella Fitzgerald, Robert Glasper, Jason Isbell, Bruce Springsteen, and John Williams' Star Wars: The Last Jedi.
The Record Store Day website's list starts at "Aa" for Aaliyah, goes to "Z" for Frank Zappa, and in between covers more classics and rarities such as David Bowie, John Coltrane, Madonna, and Bob Dylan performing with the Grateful Dead. As deep as this list is, news of new titles can also be expected, for example U2's recent addition.
Think about how to make this April 21 special for yourself, and be sure to get to your favorite independ record store early. Your record collection might thank you for the rest of your life.
