Just messaged the store close to my office to see if they will have any copies available. Thanks for the heads up!

Long Promised Road was broadcast on PBS this past Sunday night. Was fun watching it again. Brian really teared up and became emotional when the subject of Carl and Jack Reiley came up. I know Brian and Reiley wrote about 10 songs together and he was their manager for a couple of years, but didn't know Brian and Jack were that close. I guess it would be like Asher or Parks passing away; the memories are still vivid on a personal level. See, that concerned me, as when Jack passed back in 2015, there was a message allegedly from Brian posted on his FB page saying how sad he was at Jack's passing. I've been thinking about this. Noticed that a lot of these social media sites have managers doing a lot of the posting for the artists. Statements like "content by management".

Beautiful package. Will be hard to get with such a limited pressing. Thanks for the heads up.

Note, "available **first** at indie record stores on RSD" Am thinking the coloured vinyl might be a RSD exclusive, with a regular black vinyl to follow, if the coloured vinyl sells enough copies to indicate a demand. Might be US-only as well, like the CD seems to have been.

Not included on the U.K. RSD Black Friday listing.
Of interest: The Doors, Fleetwood Mac…
There might be more to come …

I'd be more worried at 500 copies or less, which they sometimes do. I've got five participating record stores within 15 miles of my area. I will see what they have as it gets closer to the date. They aren't listing much yet. Have to wait. The stores don't get them until close to the date. Hard to think 2000 folks wouldn't want one. Some are listing it as a "I want" over at Hoffman's. I think this will be the only ones on blue vinyl. When I saw this thread, I thought it was about the Cd, which still seems missing in action. Glad I got one of those!

I received this response this morning : Hello, In case this may be your first Record Store Day, no store can hold product nor take pre orders. It is against the rules of Record Store Day. Most stores do not let customers buy more than one of a title, during the first hours and for Brian Wilson, there will only be 2,000 copies available to divide between all the participating stores. Also, stores do not know how many copies they will receive because all of the product is allocated and when you see the extremely limited number of copies pressed, many stores may not receive any copies. You will have to line up that morning, at your local record store and hope for the best.

2000 copies of LPR is gonna be tough to get a hold of without getting my pocket picked by eBay flippers, but I'll try my best. I have no participating stores within 150 miles.
Still waiting for "Imagination" on vinyl... dammit!

Still waiting for "Imagination" on vinyl... dammit! Well yeah... That's almost a given for a lot of us anyway. Take a hundred dollar bill, don't expect to see much left of it with purchase and shipping.

I made the mistake of not buying the vinyl of IJWMFTT when it came out. I will grab Imagination when they release it - probably as another RSD special.

Thank You Record Store Day! Now maybe Lakeshore Records will release the black vinyl copies - I’ve seen a picture of them next to the blue vinyl. Haven’t opened my copy yet. Still admiring the cover. I’ve already heard it on Apple Music, so I might not play the vinyl for awhile. That Doors LP is getting played today though!

Would be happy just to get the CD here in the U.K.

I'd like the CD and the LP. I can see the price gauging already that will follow for the LP on eBay as copies appear. Throw on the additional 50 dollars or so for postage, and I'm in well over 100 bucks. A lot of money for a round plastic wobble board.... It'll be probably full of dirt and dust and be warped anyway, knowing my luck.

I understand the CD may be reissued next year.

Still waiting for "Imagination" on vinyl... dammit! RSD online has gone live and I see a copy of LPR for $28.95 with free shipping on eBay from one of the stores. That’s only $4 more than I paid for it in store. Meanwhile - Im trying to decide if I want to pick up a copy of Dream Widow on eBay while it’s available at a reasonable price.

My copy arrived today. I overpaid just a little bit on eBay last week (gasp!) but I can live with what I paid.
Sounds pretty good, nice pressing. Inner sleeve is waaaay too tight, so make sure you have a replacement standing by, otherwise this is gonna get scuffed up.

I never put the vinyl back in the original sleeve anyway. Better check my MoFi sleeve inventory before I start opening sleeves!

I understand the CD may be reissued next year. At this stage, I would be more interested in the CD. It sounds strange to say this, but CD's cost less than vinyl now!The price of CD's was what turned me off about them back in the 80's.

Has anyone in Europe managed to find a copy of the LP over here? I really need it for my super scientific comparison videos but it costs a fortune in shipping, customs and service fees buying it from the US. *crying emoji*

The price of CD's was what turned me off about them back in the 80's. That's because hipsters are stupid enough to pay a hugely inflated price for something the vast majority of them will never play. They only buy it because they're told vinyl is now "cool". It looks good on the shelves.

When I see the price stickers on CDs I bought back in the ‘90s, I could cry! They’re a fraction of the price new now, and the mastering’s often far superior. If I had a penny for every… or the £14.99 back, at least…
