Record Store Day 2017 Offers Several Amazing Country Music Releases

Source: RecordStoreDay.com

Saturday, April 22, marks the 10th annual Record Store Day – a day to celebrate the world’s independent record stores as vinylphiles can shop for (or in some cases fight over) special releases of vinyl records ranging from limited edition re-releases to new live albums, singles, picture discs, previously unreleased demos, and more. Most are released in quantities of 3,000 or less across the country (hence the fighting) and not all stores carry every record offered. For the serious fans, it’s become a bit of a yearly quest, from getting the list as soon as its available, figuring out what he or she wants and then figuring out how to get them. Participating annually allows one to build up a strategy of becoming friendly with your local record store to help your odds at finding the coveted pieces of wax (which also in turns helps the record industry from disappearing into oblivion).

The number of country music releases has been growing each year, and this year’s list has some very enticing records up for grabs as shown below:
