Record Store Day (RSD) 2023 is on April 22, and the list of titles being released features some impressive artists.
As in recent years, releases are broken up into three different categories:
-RSD Exclusive: These titles are physically released only at indie record stores.
-RSD First: These titles are found first at indie record stores but may be released to other retailers or webstores at some point in the future
-LimitedRun/Regional Focus: These titles are either regionally based and sold at specific stores or are press runs under 1000, which means they may be harder to find at record stores around the country.
Without further ado, the following are 40 titles we think you might want to add to your shopping list. The full titles list can be found at RecordStoreDay.com where you'll also be able to find a list of participating stores.
