Record Store Day: TODAY!

Today is Record Store Day. Your local shop should be selling dozens of limited edition singles, LPs and the like as well as running sales and various in-store events. Personally I'm hoping to pick up that Beck/Sonic Youth split and the funk/soul label compilation This LP Crashes Hard Drives (aka This Album Crashes Hard Drives). Vinyl Fever, one of my local shops, seems to be making the most out of today.
