It’s almost the holiday season. While Record Store Day can be explained to the uninitiated as “vinyl Christmas,” there’s something almost as good around the corner, and that’s Record Store Day Black Friday. The day after Thanksgiving, we’ll all be a little more thankful because there are special limited edition releases being served up after the turkey has been parceled out among guests.
As always, we encourage you to hit up your local independent record store to forage for gifts, and we’d like to recommend the Black Friday Special Releases. To get you in the mood, over the next couple of weeks, TVD will have a vinyl giveaway every day of some already-released material that we think also deserves your attention when you’re making your lists of the nice, or naughty. To kick it off, this Pink Floyd prize pack that includes Wish You Were Here.—Ed.
Wish you were here? We do too! Simply because teleportation technology has yet to be invented, we decided to split the difference with this AWESOME Pink Floyd giveaway. We have in our posession a 180 gram heavyweight vinyl of Pink Floyd’s ninth studio album Wish You Were Here and want to share the love of music with one of our dearest followers, who will win the original packing including a postcard, plus free 320kbps mp3 album download, and an exclusive poster.
If that wasn’t enough, then we’ve added the best-of CD A Foot in the Door, with a hand-selected playlist from David Gilmour, Roger Waters, and Nick Mason. The album encompasses Pink Floyd’s entire history and spotlights the favorite tracks from key band members.
So what can you do to win this fat stack of awesome Pink Floyd shwag? It’s so simple! In the comments below, tell us a non-traditional holiday song.
We’re going with The Kink’s “Father Christmas.” Give all the toys to the little rich boys—we want vinyl!
The winner will be chosen a week from today on Monday, November 21st and must have a mailing address in North America.
