RECORD STORE DAY: A FEW HINTS, PRESSED ON VINYL

If you're shopping for vinyl at Amoeba in Hollywood today, be advised that the Record Store Day Black Friday releases are located in the "country corner."

Meanwhile, head over to our Critics' Choice section for word about some RSD vinyl goodies from Legacy, including a Jeff Buckley/Sly & the Family Stone split 45 and 7"singles from Elvis Presley and Batman composer Neal Hefti, and longer sets from Jimi Hendrix, OutKast, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Judas Priest and more.

In other vinyl news, UMe's trio of Judy Garland releases are also an exquisite gift idea. Oh, and if you can get your hands on Rhino's Velvet Underground flexi-disc, you'll make somebody's day.
