“Punk legend and X co-founder John Doe has spent decades building a career that spans across various genres and even formats, with dozens of acting credits in film and TV. Particle Kid is the musical identity of singer-songwriter, musician, and visual artist Micah Nelson, who – despite his young age – has an equally impressive resume. On this split release, the two artists cover each others’ tunes with their own interpretation. As a bonus, John Doe covers a Carter Family favorite, and Particle Kid covers outsider folk hero Michael Hurley. The release was mastered at 45RPM by Dave Gardner at Infrasonic Mastering and pressed on a 12″ smoke color LP at Pallas Group in Germany. Unlike the titles listed above, this release will hit the shelves a day later on November 24th, as a Record Store Day exclusive for Small Business Saturday.”

11/24: Ben Folds – Mister Peepers 7-Inch “MISTER PEEPERS” is a song steeped in political satire, and was recently written and recorded by Ben Folds for a project in conjunction with the Washington Post Sunday Magazine. The Post approached Folds to write a song that spotlights the art of storytelling, and Folds choose to focus, with research assistance from a Post political writer, on a character currently in the news, deputy FBI Director Rod Rosenstein.

11/24: Tony Bennett/Diana Krall – Fascinating Rhythm 10-Inch “Tony Bennett and Diana Krall celebrate their shared love of the music of George and Ira Gershwin with this limited edition 10” single of Fascinating Rhythm. Fascinating Rhythm was Tony Bennett’s first physical recording in 1949, made under his then stage name, Joe Bari, which he revisits as a duet with Krall for this project. This collectable 10” single is available exclusively for Record Store Day and limited to just 3,000 copies which features a die cut jacket.”
