So did you get around to visiting a record store and buying a vinyl album or CD on Record Store Day April 23?
Whatever your answer you should know that there is a second Record Store Day coming June 18.
And as Steely Dan fans we'd like to inform like minded that an album recorded in 1970 but never released will finally see the light of day June 18.

It was recorded in New York with Gary Katz as producer and musicians like Walter Becker, Donald Fagen, Denny Dias, Jeff “Skunk” Baxter, Eric Weissberg, and Jerome Richardson.
