Record Store Day Black Friday 2025

Live from Wembley 1995 spotlights Van Halen live in concert from London's Wembley Stadium, on their Balance Tour. The explosive eight-song performance, recorded on June 24, 1995 and pressed on Translucent Orange Crush Vinyl, features an anthemic mix of the band's biggest hits and deep cuts.

The first live recording of longtime Black Sabbath/Ozzy Osbourne keys and guitar player Adam Wakeman's project JAZZ SABBATH. Eleven Black Sabbath songs re-imagined as classic jazz tracks.
On the three studio albums released by Jazz Sabbath, the trio are backed up by additional musicians on brass, horns, guitars and a wide range of key instruments. Jazz Sabbath's live shows are basic and raw, with just an upright bass, drums and a grand piano. In this set-up the trio takes these songs into long, elaborate improvisation sessions, miles from the versions they recorded in the studio, not knowing if songs like Rat Salad will be seven minutes long, or fourteen.
This live album was recorded at the legendary Paradox Jazz Club in Tilburg, The Netherlands, twenty-five shows into their 2025 tour, and shows Jazz Sabbath at their best. It’s available as part of RSD Black Friday at indie record stores as a double album pressed on translucent orange vinyl, in an exclusive gatefold sleeve.

Gas, grass, or jazz, nobody rides for free. Jazz Dispensary presents Green Bullets, a new compilation of high-octane funk and fusion-soaked heaters, soundtracking an imaginary 1970’s action film about a heist gone very, very wrong. Featuring tunes from Dizzy Gillespie, Isaac Hayes Movement, Merl Saunders, Bill Summers, and more. Pressed on “Green Thunder” vinyl.

Ghost’s sixth psalm, Skeletá, is its most unflinchingly introspective work to date. Where previous albums dealt largely with chronicling and/or observing outward-facing subject matter, Skeletá’s lyrics render the distinct, individual emotional vistas of each of its ten songs in one-on-one fashion, at times as if in a dialogue with oneself in a mirror. The result is a singular collection of timeless, universal sentiments – all filtered through a prism of a uniquely personal point of view. 
This limited-edition, picture disc vinyl is presented exclusively for RSD Black Friday.

After their 2007 breakthrough classic The Art Of Partying, Richmond thrashers Municipal Waste changed things up slightly for their final Earache album, 2009’s Massive Aggressive. Still packed with upbeat anthems like Wolves Of Chernobyl and lead single Wrong Answer, the album takes a darker, more mature approach to the band’s signature party thrash, leaving behind the beer bongs in favour of social commentary whilst retaining all the unhinged energy you’d expect from Municipal Waste.

Massive Aggressive hasn’t been pressed on vinyl since its original 2009 release, and with all those copies long sold out, it was high time to be re-pressed on wax. Housed in a lavish gatefold sleeve, these Toxic Green and Purple Merge LPs are exclusively available for RSD Black Friday.

The raw, thunderous power of Charley Patton resounds once again in this essential second volume of Father of the Delta Blues: Selections from Paramount Recordings. These tracks capture Patton at his most urgent and unfiltered, delivering fierce slide guitar, hollered vocals, and lyrics steeped in mystery, defiance, and deep Mississippi soul. This volume continues the excavation of Patton’s singular legacy: part preacher, part trickster, part storyteller. Lovingly restored and remastered by Dave Gardner, Volume Two is not just a document of early blues—it's a glimpse into the roots of American music itself, where rhythm met rebellion and history was etched into shellac.
Pressed on color vinyl exclusively for RSD Black Friday 2025.
