Tomorrow is the 10th Annual Record Store Day!!!

Anyone excited for the releases? Am I the only one who sees this as like the "spring Christmas"??? This year there's really only three releases that I'm jonesing for: David Bowie "Cracked Actor", Elton John "17-11-70", and Springsteen "Live at Hammersmith Odeon"....my favorite Bruce live album that I don't have on vinyl.

Here's the full list of releases for this year:

Hope you guys will get out and support your local stores and maybe pick up some great vinyl!

I'm sure this will sound like the most hipster thing ever but I've preferred vinyl since I was a kid and CDs first came out. There's just something about he warmth of the sound and the hiss of the record that appeals to me. CD's and digital are great, but the sound is not as warm and seems artificial.

I guess others agree because vinyl sales have gone up exponentially in recent years.
