With the nation still fighting COVID-19, Record Store Day here in the U.S. looks a little - make that a lot - different this year.  The usual offerings have been split among three dates with Drop 1 taking place tomorrow, August 29, at your local independent record retailer.  Drop 2 is September 26, and Drop 3 is October 24.  Every retailer is handling the Drop a bit differently thanks to the necessary accommodations for social distancing, smaller crowds, and better safety precautions.  So please

RSD Drops 2020

As the COVID 19 outbreak continues to impact our lives, it's heartening to know that some things are returning to some semblance of "normal," or as close as we can get to it during this unpredictable impasse.  As we previously reported, Record Store Day has been split into three standalone "RSD Drop" days, occurring on August 29, September 26, and October 24.  That's not the only thing changing this time around.  It's been reported by Georgia-based shop Comeback Vinyl that the organization is
