We’re only 22 short days away from Record Store Day 2016! Vinyl Revival will stock a selection of titles that are Record Store Day exclusive, limited edition and first releases and we’ll have a couple fun events during the day on April 16th.
11 a.m. – 12 p.m. – Meet Orlando Haddad and Patricia King from the Brazilian jazz group Minas and get advance and signed copies of their first album, Num Dia Azul, which will be re-released at their World Café Live concert on April 16th at 8 p.m.
12 p.m. – 2 p.m. – Meet Philly’s first rock and roll star, Charlie Gracie, as he signs copies of his new book, Rock & Roll’s Hidden Giant: The Story of Rock Pioneer Charlie Gracie.
Gracie’s book and Minas’ album will be available for sale at their individual events.
As part of the Record Store Day celebration, light refreshments and drinks will be provided during store hours from 10 a.m. – 5:30 p.m and an assortment of Record Store Day promotional items will also be given out for free with each purchase while supplies last.
Hope you can celebrate the culture of the independently owned record store with us!
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
2015 has been a great year and we have our customers to thank!
The popularity of records continues to grow and in addition to our regulars, we also have new customers stop in all the time.
Many of you attended events here or came in to buy the latest releases and special Record Store Day titles. Let’s take a look back at some of the fun we had this year!
We screened great indie films with FirstGlance Film Festival and Film Festival Flix and Italian Cinema with Ciao Bella! Living Italian Style.
We hosted concerts in The Vault featuring original music as well as covers with local musicians Tommy Davis, Third Man In and Electric Fallback.
We had great new, exclusive, limited edition releases for Record Store Day and Record Store Day Black Friday, new releases from Kurt Vile and Jeff Lynne’s ELO plus hard to find vintage MFSL versions of Dark Side of the Moon and Magical Mystery Tour.
We also had books signings with authors Charlie Gracie, Jim Rosin, Wyatt Doyle, Andrew Biscontini and Richard Adelman.
As we look to 2016, we hope to offer a wider variety of new and vintage vinyl and program more unique events that you can enjoy in Lansdowne!
Record Store Day is right around the corner and we’ve been busy shopping for you! We ordered way more records for this year’s event so we hope we’ll have the titles you’re looking to get. A complete list of what we ordered is below. Since quantities are limited, we may not get everything, but stop by on April 18th to see what’s in-store. We’ll have extended hours – 10 a.m. – 7 p.m.
