Record Store Day

Vinyl Revival celebrates Record Store Day, the international day to celebrate the culture of the independently owned record store, on April 20, 2024, from 10 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.

Vinyl Revival will stock titles that are Record Store Day Exclusives, RSD First titles, and Small Run/Regional Titles.

As part of the Record Store Day celebration, there will be a pop-up shop featuring rock ‘n’ roll pillows by Tamme Handmade. Each item is lovingly made by textile artist Tamme McClelland whose creative imagination goes into every design.

Receive free Record Store Day promotional merch with a $50 purchase while supplies last.

Enjoy complimentary light refreshments and drinks.

Additionally, everyone who makes a purchase will receive a coupon for 20% off a future purchase (some restrictions apply).

Here’s how the line works:

There is usually a line so we will let in the first customer in line for 10 minutes of shopping then let in the next person in line, and so on. Doors will open to the general public/walk ups once all of the people in line have had a chance to shop.

RSD quantities are limited so there is a limit of one copy per title per customer.

If you’re looking for a specific title, please give us a call at 610-284-3537 or email us at info@vinylrevivalrecords.com on the Thursday or Friday before RSD and we can let you know if we expect to have what you’re looking to get.

There are so many great releases to choose from, we hope to have your favorites!

Top 5 Requested Record Store Day Releases

We’re just one month away from our biggest party of the year – Record Store Day! It’s  an international day to celebrate the culture of the independently owned record store and this year, the official ambassador, Run the Jewels, is helping  us celebrate!

I’ve asked what everyone is looking to get on April 21st and the answers range from The Beau Brummels to Soundgarden.  But out of all the phone calls, emails and Facebook messages we’re receiving, these are our top 5 requested Record Store Day releases:

AC/DC – Back in Black – When this album was released in 1980, many of us listened to it on cassette.   Now you can hear it the same way – perfect for your boom box or car tape deck.

Steve Earle & the Dukes – Live From the Continental Club – If you’ve ever seen these guys live, then you know this will be a stupendous album to add to your collection!  The double LP is limited to 2000 copies and features “Guitar Town”, “Copperhead Road” and more.

Grateful Dead – Fillmore West, San Francisco, CA 2/27/69 – Originally released as part of the limited- edition CD boxed, Fillmore West 1969: The Complete Recordings, the Grateful Dead’s Fillmore West, San Francisco 2/27/69 show will be issued on vinyl for the first time exclusively for Record Store Day 2018.  The limited -edition 4-LP is on 180 gram vinyl, has an 8th side etching and a worldwide run of 9000. If you don’t already have the box set, this is one to get.

Led Zeppelin – “Friends”/”Rock And Roll” – Zep is one of my all-time favorite bands and apparently yours too!  I’ve been getting many requests for the band’s first Record Store Day title featuring two previously unreleased tracks, both produced by Jimmy Page.  This unique single includes a Sunset Sound Mix of Led Zeppelin IV’s “Rock And Roll” and “Friends” from Zeppelin III recorded at Olympic Studios, London. This limited edition yellow 7” single features a large hole and shaped adaptor and is housed in a printed paperboard sleeve.

Pink Floyd – Piper at the Gates of Dawn (mono) – The original mono version was named one of Rolling Stone’s 500 Greatest Albums of All Time so of course a lot of our customers want this one!  This psychedelic debut was their only album completed with original vocalist/guitarist Syd Barrett and features the early classic “Interstellar Overdrive”.

In addition to these Record Store Day Exclusive releases, we hope to have hundreds of other titles, some of the Limited Run Regional Releases and RSD “First” Releases.

It’s a fun day so we hope to see you!

Countdown to Record Store Day 2016

Woo hoo!  We are just one month away from Record Store Day.  We are super excited about it and hope you are too!

Last week, the folks at Record Store Day announced “the list” of titles that will be available on April 16th.  You can take a look at the entire list here.  There are about 350 titles.  We want to please as many customers as possible, so, as Dawes would say, we ordered “a little bit of everything.” Many releases are limited editions and there are a lot of record stores participating in this special day so we may not get everything we ordered.

We hope that you’ll stop in our store on April 16th beginning at 10 a.m. to helps us celebrate independent record stores.  We are planning a few events including a Vinyl and CD signing with Brazilian jazz group, Minas, a book signing with rock and roll pioneer Charlie Gracie, with more events to be announced.  We’ll have complimentary light refreshments and beer and wine all day.  Check our Facebook page for event details as we’ll be adding more to it as we confirm things.  #RSD16
