Stop Your Sobbing: Monkees, Aretha, Pretenders and More On Rhino's Record Store Day Black Friday List

October 9, 2019 By The Second Disc Leave a Comment

And what does Rhino have planned for this year's Record Store Day Black Friday festivities? Warner's catalog music arm has eight vinyl titles coming to indies on November 29. Expect a few vinyl debuts, some stalwarts of the label (The Monkees, Devo, The Doors) and some newly-available holiday material, appropriate for the end of the year!

Learn all about it ahead.

Alice Cooper, Billion Dollar Babies Live (Warner)
Originally released on a deluxe edition of Alice Cooper's bestselling 1973 album, this concert from Houston, Texas features live versions of "No More Mr. Nice Guy" and "I'm Eighteen" plus a bonus 7" featuring versions of "School's Out" and "Under My Wheels" that were not on that aforementioned bonus disc. (6000 copies)

Devo, Devo Live (Warner)
Back in the '80s, Warner Bros. Records pressed up a special series of "Music Show" albums sent to radio stations for one-time-only airings. Rhino will now release the first-ever commercial vinyl edition of Devo's WB Music Show as Devo Live. (The set, excerpted on the DEV-O Live EP in 1981, was pressed on CD in 1999 by Rhino Handmade.) (4500 copies)

The Doors, Live At The Isle Of Wight Festival 1970 (Elektra)
The group's last ex-U.S. performance with the original line-up was first released in 2018, and now receives a debut release on vinyl. (11,000 copies)

Aretha Franklin, The Atlantic Singles Collection 1968 (Atlantic)
A sequel to last year's singles box set, this volume replicates the four original singles The Queen Of Soul released 51 years ago, including "Sweet, Sweet Baby (Since You've Been Gone)" and "Think" - all in their original mono versions. (3000 copies)

Geddy Lee, My Favourite Headache (Atlantic)
Available for the first time on vinyl, the sole solo album by Rush's iconic bassist, first released in 2000. This pressing includes bonus instrumental versions of singles "Home On The Strange" and the title track, plus a special poster and download code. (5000 copies)

The Monkees, Christmas Party Plus! (Rhino)
Last year's Christmas Party was a fine epilogue to The Monkees' story, featuring newly-recorded songs written by Andy Partridge and Rivers Cuomo and posthumous performances by Davy Jones (not to mention Peter Tork's final work with the group before his passing last February). This double 7" EP, pressed on green and red vinyl, includes two versions of the Partridge-penned "Unwrap You At Christmas" (a radio mix and the former XTC mastermind's original demo, featuring vocals from his daughter Holly); a Spanish carol, "Riu Chiu," performed on The Monkees TV show; and the original mix of the 1976 holiday single "Christmas Is My Time Of Year." (5000 copies)

Pretenders, UK Singles 1979-1981 (Warner)
To commemorate 40 years since the Pretenders' debut single, a cover of The Kinks' "Stop Your Sobbing," this box set assembles the band's first eight singles as originally issued in England. Includes the hits "Brass In Pocket," "Talk Of The Town" and "Message Of Love" plus non-album B-sides and a recreation of a rare 1981 flexidisc. (3500 copies)

Lou Reed, The Raven (Sire)
The debut vinyl issue (on three LPs) of what turned out to be Reed's final solo rock album, a star-studded interpretation of the works of Edgar Allen Poe. Includes cameos by Laurie Anderson, David Bowie, Willem Dafoe and Steve Buscemi. (5000 copies)
