FREE STUFF FOR YOU
Often it pays to visit your cozy local record store for your new musical treasures because they’ll have special treats to go along with some new records. Here’s what participating stores have for joyous bounty:
BOB DYLAN
Bob Dylan for Christmas? Who woulda thunk it? But it’s true: Dylan’s Christmas record, Christmas In The Heart is in stores now, and while supplies last, Santa’s record store elves have an extra gift for you. We’ll give you a special red vinyl 7” single featuring “Must Be Santa” on the A-side and “The Twelve Days of Christmas” on the B-side (and that little chestnut is NOT on the album!) Pick up your yuletide treat while supplies last, at participating stores (DISCLAIMER) when you buy the new Bob Dylan album, Christmas In The Heart. (And Bob’s no Scrooge, either: his proceeds from this record are going to Feeding Americawww.feedingamerica.org)
JOHN MAYER
His new record BATTLE STUDIES is out 11/17 and there’s a special bonus in it for you if you buy the record at a participating indie record store: A Limited Edition Collectible Vinyl Single with “Who Says” on one side and “Free Fallin (Live)” on the other. See that part about Limited Edition? There’s not many of these out there, so hurry on in. (DISCLAIMER: Not all stores listed on this site carry the pieces listed here. Check with your local store for participation)
FLYLEAF you have some blank space on your wall and Flyleaf want to fill it. A very unusual (and big!) litho can be yours with the purchase of the new record, Memento Mori. (DISCLAIMER: Not all indie record stores will have this. It’s their call, as is everything else we tell you about on this site. Check with your local store to see if they are participating).

THE RAVEONETTES - The Chosen One
The Raveonettes new album, In and Out of Control, is one everyone’s buzzing about. And when it first came out, select indie record stores had a cool little gift for their customers—which included a non-album track called THE CHOSEN ONE. That little gift went quickly, so now they’ve given us permission to let you download the track if you weren’t one of the chosen few who snagged one the week of release (it always pays to visit your local record store and see what kind of new release goodies they’ve got for you). (Click through for the download)
