Record Store Day 2009

Mark your calendars for this Record Store Day on Saturday, April 18, 2009. Record Store Day will bring together retailers, record labels, distributors, artists and music fans to celebrate independent record stores and the culture they support.

"There’s nothing as glamorous to me as a record store. When I recently played Amoeba in LA, I realised what fantastic memories such a collection of music brings back when you see it all in one place. This is why I’m more than happy to support Record Store Day and I hope that these kinds of stores will be there for us all for many years to come. Cheers!"

- Paul McCartney

It is organized by The National Association of Recording Merchandisers and will likely include special events in your neighborhood record stores.
