Record Store Day

For most record collectors, no amount of vinyl is too much vinyl. So take note, wax junkies: The 10th annual Record Store Day is this Saturday, which is a totally legitimate excuse to add even more titles to your already overcrowded library and support your favorite indie record store. You can get your hands on special reissues and remasters of classic albums and rare B-sides — looking for a repressing of Prince’s 1999 or a 12-inch picture disc featuring U2’s last single? — as well as special box sets and exclusive releases that instantly become limited edition collector’s items. Most shops have discounts on their regular inventory, too, as well as the occasional in-store performance — for instance, local singer-songwriter Marshall McLean will play at 4000 Holes (1610 N. Monroe) at 3 pm. Other Spokane stores celebrating RSD: Groove Merchants, Resurrection Records and Recorded Memories. And in Idaho: the Long Ear in Coeur d’Alene and Deadbeat Records in Moscow.
