The only RSD release I ended up buying was An Ideal For Living 😕

Life After Death was like.. $50, so I decided not to 😐 A place in Toronto released Acid Rap on vinyl though, and I almost picked that up.

But I got some cool other stuff to make up for it.

Blu & Exile - Below The Heavens
Lee Morgan - The Sidewinder
Sun Ra - Jazz In Silhouette
Tame Impala - Lonerism
Animal Collective - Centipede Hz
Rah Rah - The Poet's Dead
Olivia Tremor Control - Black Foliage: Animation Music Volume One
&
Frank Zappa - Over-night Sensation

And I couldn't find the new Life After Buildings reissue 🙁

I did witness someone purchase an entire dollar bin though.

Went to End of an Ear in Austin, TX and got An Ideal for Living for a gift, and then Understanding and Appreciating Classical Music with Ron Jeremy, Sun Ra's Outer Spaceways Incorporated (we so excite!), and Tortoise's Standards (my dream right now would be to stumble across Gamera, Rivers, or Music for Workgroups in a record store). Picked up and pondered buying Type O Negative's Slow, Deep and Hard, Kode9 and the Spaceape's Memories of the Future, and that Songs: Ohia 7" box set but ended up deciding not to get them. Kind of regretting not picking up that Type O release, but I have a feeling they'll have leftover copies next time I visit, as it didn't seem very popular. Totally forgot about the Pop Yeh Yeh comp. in the heat of the moment. My store got a lot of copies of a lot of stuff but I felt like literally every person I saw walking out the door had a copy of An Ideal for Living, Commisions, and the Space Project 7" box set.

Is it true that Perfect Pussy is re-releasing those menstrual blood pressings? Cause I demand one.

I'm definitely going after Sun Ra's Outer Spaceways Incorporated and the Understanding and Appreciating Classical Music with Ron Jeremy 7". Thinking of picking up Type O Negative's debut and that psych comp. from Singapore and Malaysia. Might also pick up the Nirvana 7" or The Julie Ruin 7" for a gift.

You should come visit someday! Though Rasputin's is superior IMO, though they both have their advantages and disadvantages, for sure

Have been completely looking forward to this. I'm going to Amoeba and am looking forward to getting the Nirvana Pennyroyal Tea single, the Joy Division rerelease, †††'s eps, new Mazzy Star ep and the Paramore Ain't It Fun single. I should clarify I'm not a fan of that last song, it just holds sentimental value because I worked on the set for the music video before they canned it and made another one. It was probably one of the best experiences I've had on an mv set so I was sad to see it have the plug pulled.

Wait, a NorCal Amoeba? Damn, you leave pretty close to me, I'm in the East Bay.

Although I'm in Chicago for the week, so I'll be spending RSD here this year.

It can be tough here to even get your hands on the stuff you want even if you have the money. I missed RSD last year, but in the previous 2 years I had a really hard time finding the releases I was most interested in. So many people gobbling up the best stuff to sell on ebay.

A few solid bands I know are playing a free show at our new Rough Trade store, so I plan on hanging out there for a bit. And if I can get something good, that'll just be a bonus

Record Store Day isn't the best when you're unemployed.

Joy Division's An Ideal For Living, Little Dragon's KLAPP KLAPP, Rough Guide To Psychedelic Bollywood, and BTBAM's Colors Live

I'm probably heading over to Kops or Play Da Record that day. Also hoping to get a copy of An Ideal For Living. 😄

Overall though, the list falls short to the past 3 years 🙁 There's a lot of mediocre-average releases being put out.

Hoping to get some of these though:

Fear of Men - Loom
Danny Brown - Hot Soup
The Field - From Here We Go Sublime
Life Without Buildings - Any Other City
Notorious B.I.G. - Life After Death
Phosphorescent - Song for Zulu 12"
Along with the Joy Division EP

And depending on the prices, maybe one of the MGMT reissues, the In Utero tribute, and the Space Project. If there's any of the Red Temple Spirits's albums left, I might pick one of those up too, but there's only a few.
