At its core, Record Store Day is a celebration of the record store and its cultural impact. It was first conceived back in 2007 as a way to get people back into record shops and vinyl collecting, and to capitalise on the medium’s resurgence.
The day brings together vinyl lovers, music artists, record labels and record shops, and gives people a chance to snap up limited-edition releases made exclusively for the day.

As a beauty editor, there’s one tweakment that I get asked about more than any other: Botox. Once largely associated with celebrities’ “secret help” – or, if done badly, their frozen faces – the taboo around Botox injections is lifting. It’s the second most Googled tweakment (after lip fillers), and done well and it can be a quick and barely-perceptible way to just look a little fresher.The basic facts: Botox (botulinum toxin) works by relaxing muscles, binding to where the nerve meets the muscle and blocking the message to move.

Chris Willman Senior Music Writer and Chief Music Criticare a few artists who’ve been flagship artists for Record Store Day in its 15 years of existence — among them, the Grateful Dead, Dave Matthews Band and David Bowie, all of whom have had multiple exclusive LP releases for RSD — but maybe none have seemed quite so synonymous with the day as jazz piano great Bill Evans. And Resonance Records, the archival label that has been behind the wave of live Evans releases, is doubling down on the legend this weekend with twin titles, “Morning Glory” and “Inner Spirit,” both recorded in Buenos Aires in the 1970s but never officially released until now.As with all the previous Resonance Evans titles before them, this pair of double-LPs is not likely to last a full day in stock at most of the indie music shops that have ordered it.
