There have been a few minor additions to the Record Store Day release schedule... and I'll try to collect them in some organized fashion by week's end... but one that may particularly catch your eye/ear here in Fredericton is the Leonard Cohen - Live in Fredericton e.p. that is seeing a vinyl release for RSD.
Originally released as a free one-day download by iTunes and National Post, the recordings, made at The Playhouse in 2008 as Cohen kicked off his world tour here in Fredericton, will now be revived on vinyl.
Not much information is provided as yet, only an order line in our distro database. The original e.p. was only 5 tracks:
Tracklisting
- Bird On The Wire (Live in Fredericton, 2008)
- Dance Me To The End Of Love (Live in Fredericton, 2008)
- Heart With No Companion (Live in Fredericton, 2008)
- In My Secret Life (Live in Fredericton, 2008)
- Who By Fire (Live in Fredericton, 2008)
However the line listing for Leonard Cohen - Live in Fredericton has it as an LP and not a 12", and with a sale price of around $24.98, suggesting it might be expanded to a full length album (though it MAY just be a pricey e.p. ... I am attempting to ascertain that before deciding on how many to order).
Just thought you'd be interested. Stay tuned for further updates.
UPDATE: According to CBC New Brunswick the release will contain the same five tracks as the digital download.
This list combines this week's adds plus the previous lists into one MEGALIST. From here on we'll only list add-ons as they are spotted. Here is a restatement of the RULES OF FIGHT CLUB... or RECORD STORE DAY 2012:
Titles will surely be added weekly until the date arrives. The titles
marked with asterisks (*) are ones we are planning on ordering for the
store. The others are available, but not necessarily on our "to get"
list. If anyone is interested in these please drop us a line at either
backstreetrecords@gmail.com (for Fredericton) or
gumboot@nb.sympatico.ca (for Saint John) and let us know.
As with past Record Store Days we really can't guarantee special orders
as fill quantities from distributors and usually averaged out and
though we might order 25 copies of something we might only receive 3.
We will fill/hold requests where at all possible, but your best bet
will be an early arrival on the day of the sale.
Here's another new list of available titles

Here's a closer look (and a recommendation) for one of our more avant garde new releases this week.
From the Mouth of the Sun - Woven Tide (Experimedia)
This is collaboration between Dag Rosenqvist, who usually records as Jasper TX, and Aaron Martin. The duo brings together a beautiful blend of minimalist classical themes and subtle yet suffused atmospheric drone. Fans of soundtracks by Peter Broderick or Johann Johannson... or the quieter music of Godspeed You Black Emperor! will find much to like here.
It's a month and a half away, but we're already getting questions and inquiries about specific Record Store Day titles and their availability. This warms our hearts. We love it when there's evidence that people still love music and not just digital content for their various devices.
As usual there are a lot of listed/promoted titles that, unfortunately, might not have a Canadian release... only U.S. or Europe. In an effort to both drive excitement and satiate curiosity we'll be providing lists of titles that are offered through our distributors and should be available on the day.
Below is the first comprehensive list, but by no means a final definitive one. Titles will surely be added weekly until the date arrives. The titles marked with asterisks (*) are ones we are planning on ordering for the store. The others are available, but not necessarily on our "to get" list. If anyone is interested in these please drop us a line at either backstreetrecords@gmail.com (for Fredericton) or gumboot@nb.sympatico.ca (for Saint John) and let us know.
