Record Store Day's new "Vinyl Tuesday"


Recommended Posts

 

 

  • Formed by the people behind Record Store Day, Vinyl Tuesday will be a weekly event with participating independent retailers, promoting and selling new and limited-edition vinyl releases. The American Association of Independent Music illuminates the effort, detailing the specific types of releases which you can see below:
  •  
  • "The first type will be catalog releases. These can be special edition releases made especially for Vinyl Tuesday or simply catalog vinyl releases that come out on Tuesday."
  • "The second type will be commercial and promotional vinyl releases that come out on Tuesday."
  • "The third type is the most rare. This is where the artist releases their new album on vinyl (on Tuesday) before the album goes out on CD/digitally to everyone."
  • "The fourth type will be vinyl releases made specifically for the Record Store Day indie retail community."
  • "The fifth type will be albums that have already been released on CD/digitally and are now being released on vinyl."

this is gonna be heaven for flippers

 

In what way?

The announcement is so vague nobody knows what's going to happen.

If they're just gonna release stupid 'colored!' shit every Tuesday or something, who really cares? The flippers will buy and suckers will buy off the flippers, fine.

If they're gonna repress long-out-of-print rare albums, or release LP's for the first time ever, yeah maybe, but this doesn't sound like that so far.
