.record store day 2016

This is the second year in a row that I wasn't completely "wowed" with the RSD releases. In all honesty I checked that list 5x and wasn't super stoked about anything. I was interested in the Patti Smith "Horses" live and Regina Spektor's Soviet Kitsch. Other than that there were some 7" and I only ended up picking two. 

I'm a day late and a dollar short but here were my finds. Honestly there was barely anything left in stock today at one of my local record stores. The one is The Thermals 7" and the other is Mission of Burma / Metz. That album is a marble green and purple. And who doesn't love Sub Pop?! There were no Wolf Alice 7" so these two had to suffice. I know, very disappointing. But, with all of the concerts I've recently attended, I think RSD already happened for me this past week. 

Update: I visited my favorite record store a few days after RSD. I was questioned as to where I was. Out on the counter he pulled two copies of Patti Smith's "Horses" live album. I snatched that up. I also snagged to copies (one for free since I sold some vinyl back) of David Bowie's 1966. So alas, it wasn't a complete failure.
