Happy Record Store Day!

April 17th has turned into one of the best music days of the year thanks to it being officially dubbed Record Store Day last year.

Today is a celebration of independent labels, artists and of course your trendy local record stores that are more than likely showcasing local bands playing free shows and selling all of those deleted Smiths singles and original, not re-released - underlined - Frank Zappa albums that us music hedonists adore.

Here is a look at some delicious unreleased LPs that some of the best artists touring today have put together for the masses:
